I was just recently doing some internet surfing, and stumbled upon this Clewiston, Florida locale "Mosaic" king captured on 2/18/11. Pretty interesting find along with all the other cool stuff they found on their lengthy herping trip in Florida. It certainly makes sense that this phenotype would be found there too, because the Mosaics in todays hobby were products of gravid female clutches collected from wild-caught animals found just south of Lake Okeechobee in 1997, and the first Mosaic morphs were produced from these animals in 2003 by Bill Brant(of Gourmet Rodent)and is basically were this animal just so happens to be from too........very interesting indeed!..
