Hey Amanda E.

Remember the Hypo hatchling I posted below?
I put on my glasses and looked at that little snake very carefully. I beleive you may be right. Although it did look completely different then the other normals in it's clutch, The more I look at it the more I beleive it is a normal. Just a little different then the other ones. I will have to see how it developes. Even if it is a normal I won't be very upset. I traded two normals and got three snakes in return so if this one turns out to be a normal, no loss.
I will try to remember to keep you updated as it grows.

I'm not an expert by any means, so I guess it could be a hypo, especially if it stood out from other siblings, but it just looks surprisingly like my normals. I'll be looking forward to seeing photos of it growing up. If I had any good photos of my normal hatchlings I'd post them, but I don't.

Your photos are gorgeous by the way. I never seem to be able to get anything near that quality.

It looks different then the normals I had and the others that were in it's clutch but with my glasses (have to have reading glasses now, can't see anything close up witout them...lol)
I can see what look like nice solid black borders. Of course this would absolutely rule out hypo.
I will keep you updated.
Thanks
Jimmy
