Different color phases of Bothriechis Schlegelii

Schlegelii Nov 20, 2003 07:18 PM

I'm interested in getting Tree Vipers, especially eyelash Vipers. I'm developing a book of information for myself to refer to. And I'm interested in having the different color phases of Bothriechis Schlegelii in the book, but I don't know what they are. I know the Christmas Tree Phase, and the Golden, but I know there are more, and I want them all included. If someone could please help me, I would appreciate it. I will be doing an internship at the San Antonio Zoo, hopefully with the reptiles, and I want all the info I can get ahead of time.

That really does help. Thank you very much. Are these your animals? Or is it a site you found? I know I've seen La Vibora at the San Antonio show several times, they're incredible.

Thanks again,
Rachel

I wish they were my animals! No, just a site that I stumbled across.
