Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.

Raptors
If anyone has discussed Raptors with me or read any of my posts, they would know I believe a Raptor is a:
Red eyed
Albino
Patternless (patternless stripe)
Tremper
ORange
Now, I have a Mack Snow Raptor produced by Geckos Etc. But this is the closest I've gotten so far. He is patternless stripe and orange, but he's snake eyed. Now Ron himself says snake eyes are allowed to be considered Raptors, but hopefully this season I will in fact get the full Red eyed Raptor. I also bred my pure Mandarin het albino to an aptor male of mine to produce a very nice jungle with a lot of mandarin color and not hypo. So, this year I'll be breeding him to his aunt to see if I can get a more mandarin colored Raptor...If you could call it that. She is het eclipse so it's a 50/50 chance I can get one out of that pairing at all.
Pastel Snow Trempers
In 2008 Ron Tremper hatched out a blue bellied Raptor. 5 years later the Pastel gene was discovered to be a color enhancer.
We are currently working with a small group of these Pastels that started with an Aptor bred to a Pastel Snow Tremper. I have held back those babies that seemed to carry both the Pastel and Snow genetics as they came out even better then their mom. I have crossed this pastel into Mandarin with some beautiful results.
Lavender Reverse Stripe Tremper Snow
Working with a few Lavender Reverse Stripe. This group also seems to produce Dwarfs occasionally. Unfortunately I only have one that has survived and it requires extra attention.
Phantom Ember Project
The Phantom is a combination of SHTCT and TUG Snow. Ember is the addition of Murphys Patternless and Eclipse. This should be an interesting combo if I ever get one. It's a 1 in 64 chance on this pairing.
