She's an F1 from Beaufort Co. NC. Hoping some of that peach coloration stays into adulthood, but it's already fading some.

That one has a beautiful bold, clean pattern!, ....love the nice thick chain pattern, and also like the way it continues along the lower lateral area too!
Those resemble some that Carsten "Zee" Zoldy has had in the past with the wide chain pattern.

Thanks Doug. I like the way the chain pattern merges with the lower lateral ventrals as well. The pic doesn't show it well but she's got a real nice creamy yellow color on the lower sides and ventral surface.

No worries Don, with that perfect pattern and nice broad stripes, I think she'll look BEST if all that peach fades away! Nice snake looks really healthy!

outstanding beast indeed. I'd like to see her again in a year. Always loved easterns and wish I had more room to have some. Thanks for sharing these beautiful easterns...

Thanks Jerry. I know what you mean about lack of room. The guy I got these from has the ultimate setup, basically a barn turned giant snake room. Must be nice. Anyway, here's a pic of her sister.

I'd love to see the sire/dam of those babies. Va. Beach is by far my favortite locality, but these are close runners-up if they all share that same phenotype. Again, wow......awesome.
I used to breed locality New Jersey pine barrens easterns back in the mid-90's, which have a unique look to them. Very thin/pinstripe cream-butter-yellow bands on black/black-brown. Nice, but not as nice as some of the ones I've seen from more southern locales. Post up a pic of this one every few months just for posterity.
