New freckled Guyana BCC

Jonathan_Brady Feb 26, 2009 08:23 AM

Got this guy back in October. I've been taking him really slow as he's an import and I didn't want to push him. Got him from Pete at Incredible Pets.
He just shed for the second time in my care last night, just after he finished his 4th dose of Ivomec after fecals showing a few pinworms. I have a pretty good feeling he's cleaned out, but there will be fecals to be sure!
Thought I'd show you guys that I don't have ONLY super clean animals in my collection!
See!!!

Unfortunately for the freckle/speckle fans, that's kind of it. He's got a few more, but not many!

Same pic, not cropped as close:

Full body

He does NOT photograph well for some reason (for capturing color that is). And I think I was too close to properly illuminate his entire body with the flash (his tail isn't that dark). I'm sure with a few more months and a few more sheds, he'll lighten even further and then it should be about time for him to start coloring up

I've got my fingers crossed that this guy turns out to be an exceptional animal!

Thanks for looking!

Wow the sides on that guy are squeaky clean, you should take it easy with that J.B. freckle removing soap Ha!

Best of luck with him.

Thanks Joel! I feel like he's a nice addition to my founder breeding stock and should create some nice babies when given the chance.
