Not a sulawesi, although it would help to have a clear veiw of the dorsum. I would guess Java, with some Ambon influence. Good luck.

Not to sound dumb but where is the dorsum? I can get another pic.

Unfortunately, I'm not good with locales at all. But it is a nice looking 'tic. Congrats on the new pet.

Thank you! She is a little testy but so far no bites...I have owned her previously when she was a lot smaller and she was just nasty then. Im thinking that with regular handling sessions she will tame down beautifully.

Handle them often. That is the best way to keep them socialized and tame them down. If they don't see you as a threat, then you can end up with a nice, tame monster of a snake!
