Doug,
I don't have any photos of the parents, but do have the history on them. The female came from Peter Vise, and the male came from Ralf Pieroth, the male was unrelated to the female.
I have 2.2 of these intergrades, and had the other female lay 1.2 07's for me.
The other female and male key as hondurans and the 07's keyed as hondurans.

Hey! I know that snake! Old Gerrit helped get those animals from Herr Vise and over to the US - Jeez that was expensive and a royal pain back then.
To my knowledge, they're still the only ones in the US and as either hondurensis or abnorma are unique and unrelated to anything here.
Nice to see the old girl again and that she's still a tri-colored adult.
Did you see this pic of an abnorma from Union Barrio (catchy name eh?) Guatemala?? This particular wc animal is unusually dark but is likely to be due to its advanced age. BTW, he's still in a friends collection in Guatemala.
Good work Dell, she looks great!

Did I hear my name Jeff?
Yes, at that time I was a freshly new born to this hobby and I know you paid a lot of bucks to get this stuff over to you, Jaap helped as well!
BTW I'm really sorry that it was not the real deal....
Can you send me all the infos on your microphlois you do have? For example all the things Nathan, Lamar etc did say about those origin?

I never get tired of seeing those hondormas, Dell. They're nifty! The color saturation, in spite of the scale tipping, is out of this world. It's hard to beat a wild-type snake that looks as nice as those!
