	Morph A morph is a color or pattern variation that is proven to be genetic. Common morphs include albino, anerythristic, gentically striped, Hypomelanistic, and many others. Morphs also include combinations of simple traits such as "Sunglow" which is Albino and Hypomelanistic. These traits may be recessive traits, co-dominant traits, dominant traits, or created through selective breeding (ie Pastel).

Thanx BG.. Just keep questions coming for the interviews that are upcoming ya'll..hehe

Was breeding morphs something he stumbled into, or did he plan it?

If planned, what did he look for in the regulars that indicated they might be good for breeding morphs?

This one may not be so good, but I'll throw it out there anyway...If someone is advertising that they have a Kahl-strain albino, how likely is it that it actually is a Kahl? Has it gotten to the point where people are just dropping his name on anything to try to raise the price...

ask breeding questions for his animals- ask for every kind i say, but definitly get the royals in there.

daytemps and night temps yr round, humidity, how does he feed his animals, when does he wait to breed them, how does he feed them prior to breeding, does he do any enviornmental manipulations (light, heat, humidity), how and when does he place them together......you know-the whole shebang!!!

alot of breeders have their own tricks n stuff. it would be really cool to see what makes him tick. he is a really successful breeder!!!

What was the first morph he produced?

What are the visible differences between a Kahl strain albino and Sharp strain albino, if any? Any other ways to differentiate the two lines?

	Boa Constrictor Imperator Boa Constrictor (Boa constrictor imperator). Most common is the Colombian Boa.

What is the current status wrt his local zoning battle with his new building? They were trying to shut him down b/c his breeding building was on land that was zoned for farming or livestock or something similar, which some judge decided snakes were not.
