Have you finally come around Jeff, took long enough maybe i should get back into garters so we could talk morphs again lol

You should get back into garter, however I suggested hypermelanistic, not melanistic...

[Jeff B]

You may not be able to make a snow but maybe a vanishing pattern amel perhaps?

Totally agree Joe and that would be even cooler than a snow anyway. It would be fun to watch them grow and progress.

I need to adapt to using the word hypermelanistic lol. Many people use it, to me hypermelanistic and melanistic mean the same thing but people use the terms descriptively
I agree its hypermelanistic lol

They kind of are the same. I think it usually is used to discern between totally black and mostly black with some pattern...but that is mostly just my opinion, certainly not a quantifiable fact.
I think it is cool that the pigment developed over time like the erythristics do. That's one thing I have always enjoyed about growing up "ugly duckling"mediocre erythristics that nobody wanted to buy and watching them turn into "beautiful swans" as adults.
I definitely want to get some of these in my collection at some point. Maybe cross with the golden ery and see what happens.

I'll keep you all posted. I am starting to cool them and my Het Lucy's now. When they come out of brumation I will put down the rest.
Good luck to all this season!!

Good luck with the brumations and breeding Eddie! I think this weekend will be the last meal for mine then new years I will put mine down for a month to month and a half-ish.

So my Het Kentucky x anery group has been off feed for 2 weeks now. I soaked them for a couple of hours today and separated the males and females. Out of 9 males 3 are anery and 6 are normal. Out of 7 females 5 are anery and 2 are normal. So of my 16 holdbacks 8 are anery and 8 are normal looking. I also soaked the mother of the group. See is a visual T- albino. I will breed her back to her anery sons this season. I will breed this group sometime towards the end of January. I'm hoping for a bunch of litters from this group. I will keep you all posted.

[Eddie]

Merry Christmas!!

Good luck with all your projects Eddie. I'm betting you get those bunches of litters.
