no probs, nice little snake.. i seem to kick out a lot of classic motleys in my breeding projects at the mo

he could be a hypo motley... you'd need to breed him to be sure.. the hypo gene removes some of the black from the base coat, but so does the motley gene.. so the lighter colours he is showing could be from either

i would guess.... going on size, and also the way the scales look and body colour looks.. that he is an 06.. probably from julyish, as thats when many hatch, but could be later..

10 out of 10 mate

Aug 06. We thought he was miby a wee bit small for his age so thought the shop might have mixed up his records with another snake.
