I've always preferred the really really dark blacks. But thats a really nice OH, crazy looking dorsal pattern. You dont see much striping on blacks either, good choice!

Hey,
She's a real beauty. I have to say though, that the rear portion of the body, where the stripe starts, looks more like a Borneo. I'm sure some would agree. Though, not implying that this is a Borneo though. Very nice!

That is also the way I understand it should bee after reading "Keogh, J. S., D. Barker, and R. Shine. 2001. Heavily exploited but poorly known: systematics and biogeography of commercially harvested pythons (Python curtus group) in Southeast Asia.". P. curtus should not be able to have a stribe, also it ssems to me that the tan of the stribe is a bit more yellow than white.

It lookes like a P. breitensteini with a very pale stribe.

Nothing wrong with the snake, just dont think its a P. curtus.

Theese should be P. curtus

Hey,
I saw some Blacks from Ben Siegel, yesterday, and this one very much resembles some of the Blacks he's selling from Nias Island off the western coast of Sumatra on the Indian ocean. Very nice!
