nice looking snakes ;) Did the breeder have luck this year??????
i believe he had a bit of luck on the sunkissed projects 
These are doing really well, and have started striking and coiling around their dinner :D |

Here is a little about stargazing: http://iansvivarium.com/morphguide/stargazer/ If you watch the videos you will see its quite sad, and quite clearly can make life a tad difficult for the poor snake, but luckily it is genetic so providing good stock is used for breeding it can be avoided, but obviously this is difficult because it is a heterozygous gene mutation meaning that it can be carried without it being noticable, which is obviously a great shame.

Lovely snakes.
Good luck with the project.
Can I ask, as I'm still a newbie.....what's stargazing? (ooo, I hope that's not a really stupid question!) |

as for how long the 5 trait jackpot will take, i've not worked it out yet because the sunkissed and diffused parts are all relying on hets so I need to get lucky with the morph gods :)
If you are as lucky with the morph gods as the breeder was this year, wont take you long at all |

Yes, these are the babies from Germany :) Their parents will be tested by the breeder so that will confirm whether they are het gazers or not.
I also have another two projects containing sunkissed (those came from the Netherlands) which will be tested for stargazing too before any babies are sold.
It will put me back a few years, but stargazing is too big a thing to ignore and I want to be sure any sunkissed lines I sell babies from are clear.

sounds like a fabulous project. Those are two gorgeous snakies on their own but what you describe your end result to be sounds fantastic. |

good luck, even if you don't get what your looking for those two would create some beautiful offspring.
I've been reeding a bit about stargazer cornsnakes, do you know that your two are free of the gene? its more common in snakes with the sunkissed trait.
just wondering as i'd love a sunkissed but don't really want one that is a carrier, and i'm not sure how you can find out if they are or not. |
