Enjoy the pretty animal, but it is just a "normal" mandarin

Hi
Robyn is right. It is just a pretty colored animal of one of the southern forms.They are quite different even within a clutch when they hatch, but many animals change colors to the darker or lighter side, when they grow up especially the small northern chinese forms.Enjoy you have a nice animal and forget calling them anything but pretty......
Mine are hatching these days. 3,1 so far but there are 11 eggs to come. They should hatch within this week.
Best wishes
Søe

:i am really hesitant to freely give snakes labels that imply genetic color morphing, like hypo, when it hasn't been proven and line bred, i think that has really gotten out of hand and become deceptive, especially in the boa and ball python world. if you were to breed these back together, and get another full clutch of hi yellow animals, then that would be more appopriate, but at this time, i would just call them extremely yellow, and real pretty, or maybe "supers" : )

:of course, you can call them whatever you want, really : )
