Che: they were not bred by me, a mate of mine bred these, so pics of parents i wont have but can possibly get. I have purchased the whole clutch to do some future projects with them. I will however from time to time up date pics and their colours changes
Wes: Thanks Wes, yes we did produce some nice stuff this year, and i suppose we tend to concentrate more on our failures than successes, but 2011 is dead and burried, let's make 2012 count.....
Snake Kid: as Wes has pointed out, Olives occur in different ranges with different degrees of greens down to blacks, what intrigues me is the fact that these are pitch black, let's see what happens from here. Colours of reptiles evolve to blend into there locality is refered to as Geographic Orientation and is not a man made morph or mutation.
I am thankfull to have a number of babies from this clutch to work with..we do not want to breed different locality olives with each other but rather keep bloodlines clean and true to their locality.
