I just watched this earlier. So cool to see some of those amazing colours...And Susann's merauke was utterly gorgeous! Makes me jealous :D . All we get here are the browner looking ones.

So many racks too. You must have a skink army in there!

Susann's Merauke was going in the blue then, the other two were all white (in blue), just about all the skinks were.
Bad timing for a video, oh well !
I have 21 of those racks total, not all full yet.
I bring one of Susann's babies to every show now, and it's the First one everyone picks out, they point and say " How much !"

Susanne , here's one from mid August.

I was fortunate enough to get two of Susann's Merauke's this year also. They are beautiful. I think she has hit upon a part of the BTS market that will only get more important as time goes on,,,,,,,,,,,,color select forms of T. gigas. For those of you familiar with Corn Snakes, its like Abbott Okeetee corn snakes. They are not a single gene morph like an albino or hypomelanistic, they are from a geographic region of South Carolina and Lee Abbott kept breeding the "best of the best" back to one another and eventually developed his own "brand" of corn snake. Susann is doing that with Merauke's.

:oops: Aaaaw, you guys...
Yeah Starscream, it feels great to know that people who know BTS appreciate what I do. So I appreciate getting to see that.
Ray got to have first pick this year and he knows how to pick 'em for sure!
I wish I had room to expand my breeding project... I'm just one little lady with 5 skinks :wink: doing what she enjoys. :D
