So I'm starting to get into the wonderful world of chondros, and I currently have 1.2 canary x o.s hy animals. I am looking to get a small breeding group
going that will produce me some HY animals. What would you guys suggest? Another male from a proven line, female or a pair? Or just get 2 babies from a
proven line take my chances and see what happens? Oh yea keep in my the animals I have now are about a year if not more old. I'm a little new to the
chondro thing done ball pythons(still working with) and emeralds(hands got tired), but this is a whole new world to me. the others could be sexed chondros are
liek speak Greek to me.

Well,
It kinda depends on your situation. The most obvious question from me would be how much money you have to spend. Of course, proven bloodlines is always the way to go if you want the best posibility to produce a certain type of animal, which in your case is HY. This can be one of the harder traits, IMO, to produce with any accuracy. Canaries are not necassarily a sure fire way. It will be interesting to see how the canary offspring will fair when they start changing. We have a vast amount of canary babies that have been produced lately, but they are way too young to tell how they will look as adults. Not to mention, there has been a lot of controversy around them. Some change green later in life, some don't. Anyway, from what you explained, it seems you have a good start. OS HY animals are a very good bloodline. Spefically, I would think you would want at least one more pair, and then see how it goes. If the ones you have are a year old, it will be quite sometime before you are ready to breed. So if your looking to get started sooner, then look for some adults from proven bloodlines. Good luck, Bob |

Well money is always an issue...unless your rich would be nice but not there yet. I came to grips that in order to get some quality animals I may have to
spend a little cash. I think you may be confused on my animals. They are a crosses, unless you mean because of the blood lines they where crossed with they
may have a problem breeding for me? I was on the same page you are as far as acquiring another pair. I thought about just buying 2 from a good blood line and
hoping for he best. I could look into a yearling pair but that would cost a few grand more. How would you or anyone else suggest getting started on a HY
group?
