Scales follow breed-club and veterinary consensus; individual animals vary. Listings show what each seller has on file.

The tradeoffs, honestly

Conda markings vary, so some are hard to tell from normals without parent records. Care is the same as any hognose, including the mild rear-fanged venom.

Common questions

What do I get breeding a conda to a normal?

On average about half the babies are condas and half normals. Conda to conda can produce supercondas, condas and normals in roughly a 1:2:1 ratio.

Is anaconda the same gene?

Yes. Anaconda and conda are two names for the same gene; conda is the shorter name most breeders use.

What health records should come with it?

Ask for a clear fecal and a negative crypto PCR, plus a dated feeding log showing several meals on unscented frozen-thawed mice. A hatch record with the clutch date and both parents ties the snake to its genetics.
