They started with Black Tails, went to Brown and now that's fading away. Indoors their tails appear darker brown while outdoors It's almost unnoticeable even more so in direct sun. I also don't see the clean belly I hear is associated with true black tails.
Who knows right? I still think their needs to be more studies done on them, to say anything for sure. I have seen some crazy locality pictures of both in the same area.
Did you ever dig up that range map? I spent the last couple hours reading all the Drymarchon papers I could find and nigh a rangemap.
Christmas is coming around so I have a good reason to buy more South and Central American snake books.
Mine definitely are not as nice as yours but they're still cool even if they could be an "intergrade"
