I should warn you....its not a blood!

I wouldn't call this an impulse buy, as I've been looking at her for a little while now. She just seemed too good to pass up. Her great grandaddy was VPI's book-cover male. My local petshop is run by a couple that is actually knowledgable on herps (shocking isn't it?!), and this gal came from their pair of jungles. Anywho, whatcha think? She's a little over a year old.
Mind you, I only took about 5 seconds to get these photos, but I value the opinion of the herpers on this board.

I'm not planning on getting into jungles...just thought it might be fun to have a 'dinking around' snake. (Their feel like velvet...its weird!)

I think your animal has super color. Bright, good, strong, clean colors. Great animals to own.......

I like the yellow on yellow/black fade...for some reason the overall mosaic look is more appealing to me than the straight black & yellow (which is damn sexy in & of itself).

That's really a lovely snake C...dinking around is FUN!!!!

Two thumbs up.

She Looks Great. She is going to be a screamer as she ages. Carpets only get better with age. She is going to be nothing short of phenominal ( man I wish I could spell)

Congrats she is a keeper

Thanks for the comments everyone!

I've had a few people tell me it looks like she might have some coastal in her. That wouldn't make me too happy, but then again, she's a lot of fun to look at And yes, 'dinking' around IS a lot of fun! I've gotten so focused on the bloods lately (NOT that I'm complaining!) I thought it might be fun to see what else is out there.

Take it easy!
