With which morphs are we breeding

Reptifit keeps itself bussy with breeding of differents morphs of the western hognose snake (Heterodon nasicus nasicus). On this page you can find the mutations we currently keep. Below this text, you can click on one or more buttons with their adequate mutations. If the button turns orange, the corresponding filter is active. Theoretically, all combinations are possible. Unfortunately, we do not own all those combinations.

Normal

Normal
Normal, or also called wild type, is the most common morph. Normals have a variety in colours from brown/yellow, brown/green and brown/red. The belly of a normal hognose is either solid black or black with spots of brown or yellow. Sometimes these spots can even be orange. The pattern of a normal hognose usually consists of bigger blotches on the back and smaller blotches on the sides.

Anaconda

Anaconda

Anaconda is an heterozygous incomplete dominant mutation in the pattern of the snake. Many blotches connect with eachother and the side-pattern disappears. The belly has a solid black color, with sometimes an exception at which there are speckles with white borders around them.
When you breed two anacondas with eachother, you will get the homozygous incomplete dominant superconda morph. The superconda morph is recognised with the patternless dorsal and a black belly.

Superconda

Superconda
Superconda is a homozygous incomplete dominant mutation in the pattern of the snake. This mutation is recognised by the patternless dorsal and can have a stripe from the head.

Lavender

Lavender

Lavender is a recessive color mutation and a T+ form of albino. Lavenders start out as almost red neonates with dark bellies. After two or three sheds, this colour softens as the snake takes on a more pink-lavender like colour. Lavenders have dark ruby eyes. When lavenders are stressed they darken their colour. This has to do with an increased upward flow of melanin towards the melanophores.

Lavender Anaconda

Lavender Anaconda

Lavender Anaconda is a combination of the recessive lavender mutation and the heterozygous incomplete dominant anaconda mutation. The lavender mutation makes the colour and the anaconda mutation makes the pattern. The combination of lavender and anaconda makes the snake have less pattern on the upper layer, which makes it possible to see a more faded pattern. Their true colour is incredibly hard to capture on camera.

Leucistic

Leucistic

Leucistic is a recessive mutation. Leucistics do not have any pigmentation, expect in their eyes. This makes it that the snake has no pattern, is white coloured and has black or blue coloured eyes. In combinations it is only possible to change the eye colour and not their scale colour. This is done by making combinations with other mutations, like albino or caramel.
