I just nabbed this boy from Ron Michelotti @ classreptilia.com and I couldn't be happier.. I'm really mad I don't have my new camera yet, still snapping shots with the ancient Sony Mavica 1.3MP, but you get an idea of what he looks like! I'm very happy with my purchase and the transaction with Ron was flawless! He's a possible dominant Ghost that's going to be lined up with the anery (if she ever makes it here !@*#%*$DHL!) Well, I guess it's time to wait til breeding season to make some "Super" Ghosts!! Take care

Ghosts tend to yellow/tan up in adulthood.

Awesome looking ghost, congrats. You have my info if he produces for you this winter. Good luck.

B/C that tail looks red to me. I got no problem admiting when i am wrong. Or maybe I have color settings on my monitor somewhat off.

Here's a picture Ron took of the Ghost the day before he shipped out.. The pic was taken indoors, with a flash, where mine was taken outside, no flash and a crappier camera most likely..

Photo was taken by Ron Michelotti

Nice.......

But ummmmm, that's not the way he arrived was it? No secondary containment (bag), no additional padding, no heat pack? I have to assume you just put him back in the mostly empty box for the pix.

Definitely not, he was packaged perfectly. Bagged, padded and sufficiently heated. I took him outside to snap pix immediately but didn't want to snap them in the spot where I shoot my long term stock, the box seemed to keep him in place so I used it.lol

I figured as much but I could just see a "shipping" newbie seeing your pic and thinking that's how to pack them for shipping.
