Hey,

Just wondering if he officially qualifies as a granite. Great snake!

Thanks,

Steve

There are two types of Granites - those that just have speckling along in their alien syes and those that are considered "True Granites" that have a little more by way of looks and genetics. True Granites generally speaking have the speckling, a clear white belly, lighter head and light eyes and some say that thier True Granites have a little bit of a different feel to them, almost pebbley not smooth. It's kinda like the YB, there are those that look like them and then there are those that are het for ivory. Hope this helps.
