Another Unique Splendida

flintdiver Sep 19, 2011 09:13 AM

This snake hatched over the weekend. It's from the W. Texas pair that produced a fully striped splendida in 2009. Those adults were not bred in 2010, but I did produce eggs from them this season. Looks like it's probably genetic, one striper and two normals are out, with one more in the egg. Pretty cool snake !

Interesting. Looks like the opposite of a white-sided getula, both in color and in placement.

Man.......I wish I would've gotten those adults now......
Those are killer Splendies.......I wonder if the one in the egg still is a striper?

Very cool! Is one of the adults striped also?
