Hi all just thought I'd say hello

Been following a few thread and reading intently for a week thought it was time to get into it

Been wanted to get into this hobby for many years and never been able to talk the wife to letting me get a snake of some description, finally plucked up the courage and bought it anyway,


Meet pebble not 100% sure on what type he is if you could help out with that ?

Its possible one parent was a fire or coulda just been a diffused with hets lol theres several ways to acheieve those hets but basically yours carrys recessive genes for the Diffused and Amelanistic morphs which when combined would make the Fire morph (if as i said you bred yours to either a fire or to a diffused het amel or amel het diffused or any other snake het for both)

so mine is a anery with genes to to produce the fire strain ? or both the perents had the fire strain but mine was not born with the ?

sorry if i am being thick
