Nice one... Seems to have the right ingredients to grow into a nice brooksi-type Floridana, but you gotta grow it up and see. What animals produced that?

This hatchling is from a pair of poss. het for "Peanut Butter"

It has the most speckling i've seen on a freshly hatched Florida king (and i plan on keeping it)...

here's an old pic of Mom: (Sire, is similar but yellow rather than Brownish-green like the female)

Zenny, I don't know why you are calling that a possible het. Thats snake came from me, no? If it did its its not a possible het. I think it may be a PB even though sld it to you as a female het.

ANyway I produced two of those snakes like you posted above in 2004. I have not had any like this since then. There is something very strange going on with those PB's...

I have been using that term here for a while as a middle ground to meet the needs of the hobbyists and "nomenclaturists". who knows, maybe it will catch on, maybe it won't. but it is about as clear a label as anything so far.

yes, that snake definitely rates.
