We show that supertwistor spaces constructed as a Kahler quotient of ahyperkahler cone (HKC) with equal numbers of bosonic and fermionic coordinatesare Ricci-flat, and hence, Calabi-Yau. We study deformations of thesupertwistor space induced from deformations of the HKC. We also discussgeneral infinitesimal deformations that preserve Ricci-flatness.Comment: 13 pages, references and comments adde
