Awesome mike!!! The best name I can come up with for it, is my axanthics girlfriend. Lol. It is a female right??

Definitely not axanthic-but hot! I've seen several mexicans from a variety of regions which on the dorsal surface appear axanthic, but have telltale yellow or orange on the belly.

Definitely a keeper! Keep me in mind for any offspring, please?

It looks like the Blondes Kevin Rhodes is working with. Did it cone drone the same line? Is it wild caught or captive bred?

Stupid auto complete!! My last post should say come from, not cone drone!!

I'd call it a keeper.

Mike, nice hog!

Check out Vin Russos site, cuttingedgeherp.com. He has some aberant looking M.hogs kinda like that one, & his are Starr County, TX. locality. I got a couple REALLY nice ones from him a couple years ago, they have normal pattern but still nice looking.

Looks almost identical to my female Blonde, just silver instead of yellow. The sides look similar and even the nuchal flag looks the same. The pics here are a few months old, I'll update soon. She has already brightened up and lost most patterning, as I'm sure yours will as well.

The mother of mine is also a South Texas snake.

Very nice addition.
Great Project with color and pattern possibilities.
I was very surprised by the belly pic.
Really didn't expect to see any yellow.

I would have to say that is an outstanding looking Mexican,the color is just insane.

Ome of the things I really like about the Hognoses is that they are pretty much an almost untouched species in the fact that there are not many morphs yet...

I think that in the next couple of years we are going to see some really cool morphs pop up in both the Mexican and Western hogs...

Beautiful Mexican you have there... Good luck with that and all your projects...

Very, very nice!!! I wanna be under Brad's name on the list, lol!
