That pics looks to me like a pretty nice Black Back. I've done business with Serpents Den in the past, and they were top notch, so I suspect that pic was put up in error.

Well, what I thought what could be an Axanthis is NOT. I looked at different pictures online and thought it could be. I posted him as unproven and through correspondence with Ralph Davis & Mike Jollif they confimed he is not. He's still a nice Blackback though.....oh well my error.
Thanks for your inputs.

Maybe you should read the ad before posting a thread like this. It says the male is an axanthic and the female is 100% het. The first 2 pictures are an axanthic and the last is a normal(100% het).

axanthic......no xanthin
melanin still is present
the snake does not have to be straight grey to be axanthic
sorry but if the line is proven i dont care if the snake is hypermelanistic IT WILL STILL MAKE SNOWS!!! heheeh yea for snow
But if it is from some kid then i say probably not axanthic. But remember your not looking for grey scales.....your looking for the absence of yellow scales. ,Brian
