He has picked up weight very fast, I have been feeding him as much as he wants for the last month. He is fast becoming my favorite male sanke.

Thanks. Mike
Billy, I found him in a pet shop. I had run out of mice and was checking all the pet shops, they don't keep herps, I was told someone dropped him off as an unwated pet. He was in a dirty plastic container, with three sheads in it.
If I lived in a country, that had an SPCA I would have reported the shop.
I complaind, but to was told to bugger off or buy it. I couldn't just leave it to die and ended up buying him, the old bag at the shop didn't let him go cheep.
"If I lived in a country, that had an SPCA I would have reported the shop."
Thats a real interesting hypo you have there. Does the belly have a pattern or have lecks or is it solid yellow? Looks like what the original hypos used to look like before people started outcrossing them. Do you live in another country? That may explain this.

When I first saw it I thought it looked a little different, It's very close in color to the pics. I don't have time right now, but I'll take better pics in the morning and I'll get some belly shots, Wow I'm glad you guys like him. I wish I could find a nice mate for him, I have a very dark female Florda king and a goini that I'll mate with him. I don't have much choice right now.
Thanks for the interest and insight.

Here are the pics. I'm not a very good judge of color, to me it looks like it is yellowish greenish with a slightly pinkish tinge to it, sorry Billy Its hard for me to say, my wife calls it the white one.
Here are some pics that are a little better.
Looks good. Keep feeding him!
