This is my kahlua & creme auratus hiding from the predatory camera flash. You can see the specks of green and blue all over his body. These little guys are incredible.

Hi,
I like the pics! I have 4 brown and white auratus I traded Patrick N. a spare female imitator for about 10 months ago.Mine are basically cream colored and dark brown without any green or blue spots.Are yours from Sean Stewert?

I got him from Glenn Novotny at Seaside Reptiles. He got in a really nice shipment of wild caughts and picked out one of the nicest ones for me. I think he has a couple left, but the patterns on these guys can range from well defined to very cloudy, so make sure to tell him what you are looking for. Good luck!

From what I understand there are different morphs of the kahlua and creams. Mine are supposedly from western Panama.All 4 of mine are basically the same color but have different patterns.One has what is starting to look like a more reticulated pattern, it is awesome.They may be shy but I think they are my favorite auratus morph................Mark W.

Yea, I know that there are a bunch of different types. I know of kahlua &creams and brown and whites, but there may be other morphs. If anyone can shine some light on this, it would be fantastic.

Yeah,
Mine are supposed to be the brown and whites.Mine are from Saurian Ent. I have talked to different people and there are also the so called "mint chip".Have you been to Sean Stewert's site yet? He has some similar to yours,those are cool but people tell me not to mix mine with his, kinda like crossing a Costa Ricna with a Panamanian auratus I suppose.Also, go to Robb Melancon's site, he has some nice pic's of some he raised sort of a "camo" pattern.
