Hello:

I am wondering about the fine spotted Leaucomelas. Are the in every way the same as the regular, will they produce the same type of fine spotting in their young, where are they to be purchased, and how much more are they?

Thank you kindly,

Maggie

I am pretty shore it depends on the bloodline. I know a few people working with fine spots that produce other fine spots..but I have seen some people try to sell their off spring from normal parents as fine spots. Better to go to the bigger people if you want the real deal.

They came over, I believe, in the 1998 shipment as a new morph-- with much demand drummed up from a certain book (large, poor information but good pictures). Some of them seem to be very tightly spotted, others not quite as much, but still more than a normal morph. From what I know Sean Stewart has some nice ones, I would give his a try if I was getting them.
Best,

Yes, I believe that Sean Stewart does have some and his price is 45 dollars. You can check out his site at www.herpetologic.net or in the classifieds.
