I love the variety of these JCP hatchlings! Here are some examples of tipping, spots, and "New Age" pattern:

Thanks Ben & Mark, here are the parents. Both photos taken when they were about 3 - 4 years old. Sire: Asklepios (in tub), Dam: Zalara (coiled on branch)

Hey man, I REALLY like that sire...he looks pretty similar to one of mine...
Got any background on him?

Glad you like him, Ben, he is definitely my favorite snake. Unfortunately his stock origin is unkown, I bought him from a guy who bought him at a reptile expo in Southern California. He is 6 years old and his yellow is nearly as bright as when he was two. He is massive, over 8 feet long, and the most docile carpet I have ever handled. He is the one I use when I take him to my kid's school for show and tell. But during breeding season he is a complete stud...attempts to mate within seconds of introduction to the females and attempts to fight any other male around. With his size and color he is a sight to behold (can ya tell I like him, just a little bit?)
