""But I still am having problems with this intergrade thing. Are the rest of the snakes where this one came from like this??? Then why would you call them intergrades?""
The only other getula found at this locale (with in meters) was a nearly perfectly speckled adult. Now...I don't know if these hatchlings from wild collected eggs will speckle out like this adult, but I suspect so. I also know that pure forms of Holbrooki are found to the North and East of this locale and pure forms of Splendida are found to the south and west of this locale, thus my assumption it has gene flow from both Holbrooki and Splendida (intergrade).
What do you think it is Frank? It looks way more Holbrooki to me, is it Holbrooki? or Holbrooki intergrade?
