Thanks Troy ... and to all who have replied. She's certainly like nothing I've seen. When I pulled her out of the peat moss I thought I was hallucinating.

From what I can tell in anacondas, there is usually a reduction in the number of dorsal saddles and the facial pattern seems normal, even in the super form. Mine has a reduction in patterning on the sides and high contrast dorsal saddles like you mentioned, but wouldn't an anaconda have fewer? Also, anybody have any pics of this kind of reduction in facial pattern?

I thought this one from last year (in the 1st pic) with the same father had an interested face pattern, but nothing like hers.

I'm looking forward to growing her up.
