Kind of afraid to write sulfur! Anyway was wondering if anyone has a pic and could post a picture of the original sulfur male from Hillsborough County. Thanks in advance.

This is the one from Krysko's site. Wish there were some better pics of this one:

There was not just one original sulfur that founded them all, and the one above was not the only one out of the wild to look like that.

I saw the sulfur male that Krysco had in person and it looked nothing like that one in the pic. Maybe he had more than one?/Weird.

The one i saw was almost solid yellow. Maybe that pic is very bad. But it does not even look like the same snake I saw that he proudly displayed at shows.

Someone would probably need to call him and find out. I don't know for sure that the snake in that picture is the one he got from Mike Falcon. He had some smokin' sulfurs in his snake shed when I visited him a few years ago, better than any of the ones I've seen lately. I'm pretty sure he has since sold off all his floridana.

Yeah when i last talked with him a couple years ago he was real sick.

It's sad to see beautiful animals like that drift off into obscurity in the mad quest for the latest morph.
