I was up till 2am the other night playing on corncalculator after Gmac kindly pointed out why it wasnt working for me lmao



It won't bet HET hypo and anery as ghost is already hypo and anery
Most corns these days are carrying amel, anery or hypo, so you can pretty much guarantee that your ghost will be het for something, it's just a case of breeding it to find out what




Sorry i shoulda rephrased what i meant was anery and hypo make ghost so those traits would be passed on even if nothing else was i really ought to refrain from posting at silly o clock in the morning lol



another member of the late night club. least im not alone

Not the case with corns at all, however I have heard that exact phrase used with crested geckos, as you literally never know what might pop out! You could pair two pinstripes together and get dalmations, it's totally random, however with corns if you put two stripes together you'll get stripes, it's as simple as that

on the subject of hets. i had the same prob. then when i took my babies to the rep shop he told me of some one special i might be interested in. it turned out to be my male carolina stripe simon. het for anery amel and hypo. i got to admit the hets of my ghost are still not known. so with simon i am hoping for a nice clutch of suprises.

also too be honestmost corns have many hidden genes so i guess you will have summin nice come along anyway

It's not really anybody's 'responsibility' as such, most breeders will advertise the snakes with hets as a lot of people who buy corns/snakes are attracted by what genes the snakes carry Personally I like to know what hets my snakes are carrying as I plan to breed most of them, so if I find an advert and it doesn't state any hets then I will ask what the parents were and I'll work it out myself

TBH any morph you want but youll end up with normals, youll need a corn that has any morphs or hets the same as your ghost, corn calc is your best option for workings out
oakleyman18 Posted - 10/02/2012 : 17:54:41
You can breed any corn with any corn, but you need to know the chances of getting specific colours (morphs) out. If you bred a ghost corn with a lavender, you would get normals het for lavender, anery and hypo. They would all look the same, and you wouldn't be able to sell them for much.

Your best bet is to find a female with Anery and/or Hypo genes, preferably Anery as that will give you the most interesting looking clutch of babies. Anything that doesn't include either of those two genes will just produce normals

Not that there's anything wrong with a normal!

what are you hoping to get from the clutch? Think about that 1st before hand. It will no doubt help to find what you are needing.

Its like going into a sweet shop and sayin "I want a sweet. Gimme one.".....

Dibzy-Time Posted - 10/02/2012 : 17:29:21
so maybe a female lavender?
eeji Posted - 03/02/2012 : 19:13:52
anything you want! :)
sue2012 Posted - 03/02/2012 : 14:23:49
u should look on here http://www.corncalc.com/ (hope the link works lol) have a play about outting in your ghost and then mixing it about with some other morphs u might find something u like the sound of :)
