Jeff, my reply was to ChrisEricas post regarding the black stripe down his glades rat tongue. I always understood any black pigmentation on the tongue indicated yellow rat gene flow. I read this in an old Dick Bartlett book about corns and ratsnakes. With so much information flooding the hobby these days, I am sure the old definitions are changing regarding this variant of ratsnake. I certainly did not mean to infer your glades wasnt pure, etc. Sorry if you took it that way man!! It is a spectacular animal for sure.
