Sorry to hear that. One of the things I think is so important when working with a new morph is that the animals be as good a representative of the mutation as possible. Norman was not only the founding father but also a very good quality motley in terms of pattern. I feel fortunate that one of the two motleys you sent me several years ago has the classic pattern of Norman and even more saddles with pattern in them. I really like this feature because I think it gives the animals an even higher contrast appearance.

As you know better than the rest of us having seen so many motleys and combination morphs we are just beggining to see what the potential of the Motley really is. Although a sad loss the living legacy of Norman will be one of the foundations of the boa breeding world for years to come.

I look forward to seeing what new variations on the motley theme you produce this year and wish good luck with your projects.

Bill
