Well, neat for me anyway.
If I ever get into theyeri, I want a neonate like this one.

I was tempted to impulse buy him, but I decided it was better not to impulse buy anything, and I'd probably rather start with hatchlings.

Anyway, this guy was gorgeous.

Oh - and is it thayeri or theyeri?
The deli says theyeri, but that doesn't give very good good results ...

It is thayeri. very nice. they are great little snakes. easy to get hooked on. Rin

Please understand, I can only go by my experience, and I have lots of wild and captive experience with Thayeri. I also have experience with other montane kings, as well as crosses between them. I did them all.

That appears to be a very typical pyro/greeri or other pyro cross. There are many characteristics that indicate that.

Of course, thru generations of inbreeding/pattern breeding, you could get a pure thayeri that appears to be a cross. But then it too, would not represent a true thayeri.

Then consider in this day and age of unknown genetic origins, if it smells like, looks like, tastes like, feels like, then it is. And that is a cross. Cheers
