He is a Male. I am not sure if he is a hypo or not. I am currently looking for a nice girl for him. All the girls that I am currently growing up don't look anything like him, so if anyone has a female similar, or just an adult female let me know. I am interested in several.

Well that was my thought...I just want a "Stud" and will share the offspring.

Is this your snake or one you saw elsewhere? Do you know anything of its history(who produced, CB or WC?)? I don't know enough about them for this to be much more than a guess, but could it possibly be a cross with a rhino or Gaboon? The red almost makes me think so, but if it's purely a color morph that's even better.

Yes, this is my snake, all my pics are my animals unless stated other wise. It is WC and is supposedly caught in a part of Africa that is not collected in much, but I have no idea if that is true. The scalation is the same as all the rest of my puffs.

Looks like a hypomelanistic to me. I've seen albinos also.

Do the eyes (pupils) have a reddish reflection to them?

This one is younger, smaller, and needs to shed, but you can see how nice this one is turning out.

but I saw a program several years ago that showed some puff adders like that. It was in a desert/ dune habitat in one of the far northern African countries. I at was first surprised that they ranged that far north, then totally awed by the coloring which reminded me a lot of Echis, but it would only make sense for that type of habitat. Beautiful snake! as are all the others posted. I love all the variation.
