I was looking through the photo gallery and came across what I think was a morph called "biak". Can anyone give me more information on this gorgeous snake?

ok, so its a green tree python, but this one was blood red, with yellow or oragne "speckles".
...and by the way, how much larger than a BP does a GTP get?

Babies collected from different places are different colors. Some are red while others are yellow they will grow out of it when they are adults. When mature they can be green, yellow, blue or any mixture depending on how much selective breeding was used in past generations. Some excellent colors are being produced by people like greg maxwell and trooper walsh. They usually get to be a slender 4 or 5 feet. For more information you can just go to the GTP forum or sites like Fine GTPs, Chondro Web, Chondro Forum, and Chondro coalition. There are a lot of us chondro lovers out there that can help you. If you are very interested, I suggest picking up The Complete Chondro. They are a fantastic species.

Seems like it was summed up to me. BTW some chondros have many colors even as local specific animals. They don't have to be selective bred in order to have this. I love some of the designer chondros then again I don't like morphs or designer anything. Nothing beats a local specific animal imho!
