I must clearify something, we dont actually own this snake yet, my wife was a little overzelous in posting it, it was offered to us for sale last, I emailed the exporter stating that I wanted it, and my wife assumed that we were getting it, apparently there is some discrepancies with another importer who was offered this snake as well. I know we want the snake and assumed it was only offered to us, but apparently not. So I do not know if it really will be ours.
Sorry for any misconceptions my wife might have percieved and any you may have as well by this post.

Are you SURE?

That snake is NOT under six feet long, in fact it does NOT look very jampea like!!!

I have seen two male calicos so they do exist but are quite rare. Are you SURE that is a male?

Dealing with collectors over there can be an eye opening experience to say the least. How did they sex it?

Did you send you money yet?

Good LUCK!!!

here is a male calico, he was imported at 15' and thought was albino, but you can see the black spots over each eye!!

I have a couple of albinos that sport black spots on various parts of their bodies that never seem to grow or expand. I have often questioned whether this is some form of paradox albino form. What really gets my attention about this particular male isn't the dots but the color of his pupils. They appear black or very dark in this picture.

Was he exported by the Wongs?

not from wongs

I have a male tiger het albino that is begining to develop white spots on his head and lips. I am waiting for several more sheds to see if, A. This increases and proves out as true calico, or B. These either disipate or don't increase anymore. I will only consider him to be a true calico if these splotches grow and expand and new ones pop up with each shed indefinitely.
