On the 29th Jason Haygood posted some incredible pictures of his recent hatchlings including a Diablo Blanco, Het Raptor, Raptor Females, a Black Eyed Eclipse, a Tremper Albino Mack Snow, and a Tremper Albino Super Snow. In that post there were many questions being asked about Tremper Albino Super Snow’s. Here are some quotes from that thread.
Rather than hijack Jason’s thread I thought I would start a new one to show some pictures of my Tremper Albino Super Snows and to answer some of the questions.
The first three Tremper Super Snow’s are ones I kept for myself. The first two pictures are of the Males, and the third one is a Female.
The first Males markings are a little more yellow in coloration but definitely not what you would call dark. There also seems to be no difference in coloration because of incubation temperatures. The Males were incubated at 88.8 degrees and the Female at 80 – 82 degrees.
The next two pictures are of a couple of Males that I sold to other breeders. Once again the marking coloration is extremely light. It is funny that as dark as some Tremper Albinos end up being the Tremper Super Snows appears to be the lightest in coloration of the three Albino Strains.
The last picture is a close-up of the eye. I normally use a 60mm Micro lens for photographing my Geckos. It allows me to be just far enough away that I can take the picture and still corral them with my hand. I can never get much detail of the eyes because the flash is too close to really illuminate them. For this picture I used 105mm Micro lens that allowed me to get further away hence the flash did a better job. As you can see the eye color is a dark ruby red. The purple coloration on the actual eyelid is not really there. It is a reflection off of the eye. This is the first time I have actually been able to photograph the vertical pupil of the eye. Really cool huh?
If anyone has any more questions I will try to answer them as time allows.
I hope you enjoy,

monkeygirl said:do the super snow trempers develop brown spotting like the bell super snows do? and do they have red eyes or black eyes?
paulnj said:The ones with light patterns seem to be males from my web search ability. Obviously males were what was desired last year, so higher temps were used. I have a few clutches of MTA X MTA cooking at 81, so time will tell if temp has an effect on the darkness of the pattern(if I get SSTA).
monkeygirl said:do the SS trempers keep thier red eyes too?
robin said:all of the three strains of albino SS get a pattern. if you look closely in the photo you can see it is beginning to develop. as far as normal eyes or red eyes. i would assume it would have red eyes.
oh and jason, i really dig the "het" raptor and tremper mack snow as well![]()
