"Freshly shed yellow phase northern pine, with retained eye cap"

in all her spender

I think she looks great now, but I was told that she'll grow into a vivid yellow and black animal.

Nice looking girl I love northerns. Looks like she has a pretty good red blush to her.

Seriously [bleep]en snake, and a refreshing alternative to B&W. Did you get her eye-cap off yet? If not, I hope you're keeping it soft with mineral oil.

I really like this girl. I'll have to get a photo or two of her mate - same yellow phase bloodline.

I did get the eye cap off. Just used a gentle hand and a pair of tweezers.

Thanks.

Very nice. Northerns are simple yet beautiful. They don't all need to be flashy.

Exactly! Great words!

Looks like an angry freshly shed yellow phase northern pine in that first pic. Very nice looking now like you said. Any pics of what the yellow parents look like? Maybe something like the Kentucky pines someone posted that look incredible w/ the yellow ground color and black blotches?
