What is an Ery?
I get asked about the Ery line quite a bit. Since it's a fairly new gene in the hobby, many people don't know what it is, or how it works. The Erythristic gene is a gene that originates from some extreme Flames, and has been selectively bred to bring out the red pigments, or Chromatophores in Florida King Snakes. The gene is very strong, and will enhance red colors even in the first year of offspring. It is not a simple recessive trait so no need to raise up hets. The gene in my experience acts exactly like the sulfur or HX gene which increases yellow. The two genes seem to be compatible so breeding an Ery to an HX will result in very increased colors in the offspring in the first generation.
All of my Ery projects trace back to my main Erythristic stud which I call the Iceman.
He is an Ice which is Ery and Anery which creates a very white looking snake as the Anery erases the red from the Ery, and results in a two gene combination morph we call Ice! Below are a couple of photos of my male Ice for reference only He is not for sale....
