Well, in my personal opinion, I'd say that's definitely a dendro and definitely something different. I've seen newborn dendros and they looked normal, so that's not just some age thing. To me, that snake looks hypo, or possible "ghost," or maybe even "pastel." Lol, I feel like a bp freak just suggesting them. But seriously, try your damndest to get that snake eating well and breed it! Then we'll see if it's genetic and you could create the next big thing in "hot" mutations. Now if you could only find an albino and try combining the genes just to see what happens. Anyway, very, very neat animal. Keep posting pictures.

I've got a young pair that look identical to that lighter coloured one.

Interesting....The person who picked mine up for me said that he was told there were others (in the same group) like it. Mine came from a importer in Davie. Where did yours come from?

Their were were four in the shipment. They were all this brownish colour. They were imported into canada (where I'm from) from the US. I just assumed they would darken up as they got older?

Sounds like that was the restof the group. I've ben trying to trace them since they left here. They (in all likelyhood) will stay brown. Boiga d. is normaly black right from hatching. Frank
