what about black backs?

mistysprouse Sep 26, 2004 11:32 AM

speaking of unproven stuff. One of my two babies hatched out black black, then upon review I noticed that the dad looked the same. On Nerds site they have one that looks the same as the new baby. http://www.newenglandreptile.com/ball_blackstripe.html
the one with the red back ground. What are everybody's thoughts on black backs? the first pic is the baby

Blackbacks are one of my favorites. Definitely a "reduced" patterned snake.
