Hypo Emoryi

TandJ · 09-09-07, 11:23 PM

Of course this one needs some proving.. Came from BHB Reptiles.. Sold as a Ghost Emoryi, I had a nice chat with the Bryan ( if my memory serves me correctly ) .. I asked him about the name Ghost and if it was Anery.. He said it was not an anery Emoryi, but indeed it was a hypo.. Maybe Don Soderburg or KJ knows more about these.. The black seems very reduced and the iris' is a deep ruby red..

Regards.. Tim of T and J

I think you mean the pupils dear... the irises are more of a brown/grey.

it is a hypo. how old is it? KJ and I both got a pair of hypo emoryi from BHB. We feel that the hypos are very inbreed and they do not do great. Watch the animal closely. We do not even plan to breed hypo to hypo (unless to prove that there is indeed something wrong). We only plan to breed hypo to other morphs, such as albino and chocolate. In two years we may breed a hypo to an albino chocolate. Some interesting plans, that should prove to be very interesting in a couple years. Ill have to get some pics of my chocolates up some time (my hypos are at KJs, maybe he can post some sometime).

Thank you for the info on the hypos, we were unaware that there were problems with the hypo line. Right now she seems to be doing really good and she was one of the largest out of the group we picked from.

Knowing that, it's a good thing that all of our Emoryi are from different lines. Even the albino or het albinos we'll be getting are from a different line then the hypo and the normal.

I look forward to seeing the pics of the chocolates, I'm not sure if I've seen any of them before.

If it was the largest, then it is your best shot, KJ and I got 4 total, 3 are still alive, but one was questionable for a while.
