Posted: Thu Feb 28, 2008 9:04 am Post subject: Copperhead Morphs |
|
|
There are only a few Copperhead Morphs out there so far, and there outstanding. With more and more people becoming interested in Copperheads and starting breeding projects there will soon be alot more. This post is about the different copperhead morphs and variations found and photographed, and our hopes and dreams with our breeding projects and future offspring.
This is one of my favorites, though not mine.

unfortunatly the grey copper in the last pic over heated in a trailer in texas, when an air conditioning unit went out....
the grey and black copper walter gave me is doing fine and just came out of burmation....gonna try and get some babies again this year w/ a different female....
copperhead morphs known to be in current breeding programs are....Spotted, Striped, Pastels, hypomelanistics, hypermelanistics, and grey and blacks(possible anery or axantic)
i currently own all i mentioned, so if anyone knows of any other morphs currently in breeding programs i would love to hear about it...
also i have a pair of osage babies with solid black bellies...anyone here in that part of the country or breeds them and knows if this is common?
