I Bought this snake about 4 months ago and was told it was a Borneo. I recently got a message from one of you that it looks to be a Sumatran. Either or, I still love the snake. But if you people could shed some light on it for me, that would be awesome....

Thanks in advance

here is another 1 I posted earlier...

Hey,
The photos are not great, but from the looks of it, I can see that it is a Sumatran Red blood. I'm sure others will agree with me. No offense meant on the photos!

Yeah, I know that the photos are not that good. I have an outdated digital camera, and 3 of the photos I tried to upload (that were actually pretty good) did not load.Evidentally too large of a photo or something, I must have to resize it. But thanks for your input on what you can see anyway, as I stated, I love the snake and can care less about its origin. But I don't like the fact that I was given the wrong info from the pet store I bought it at as they should be the ones more educated than I on this sort of thing.
Anyway, sorry about the long post and I love the pics of your bloods as well as the others that other people posted.

Hi,

Could you post a close up of the head, particularly the eye showing the scales? This should give a definitive ID. Elsewhere in the forum there is an article on the ID of the different species using scalation as a key.

Looks a very nice specimen, you must be very happy.

Cheers

Unfortunately the words "educated" and "pet store" don't mix...
