Here she is!
Does she look like an apricot to you? I was told she was, but I don't know...

What would make her an apricot? Slightly apricotishly coloured bands instead of white? Just curious...

Instead of white bands, they are orange. You can't mistake it. Well, unless your eyes see in black and white. Then it'd be hard to tell the difference.

The normals are just as cool though. Some are striking, I think!!

Not bad... wiry sometimes but pretty good otherwise.

Jeff, my Paco was sold to me as an apricot phase pueblan. Now he doesn't have the distinct orange bands throughout his length but does have them for the first band and the last 4-5. Does this make him an apricot or a half apricot??? I don't care either way cause he's such a cutie but I am curious

Here's one that's not the best apricot, but is definitely one. They are usually much oranger than this, plus she was in a shed.

Thanks for the responses. I had looked up the apricots when I came home with Paco from the reptile store and didn't think he was a true apricot from the pictures I saw. Oh well, no biggie for me, he's still cute and adorable to me :)

Another shot of a different female Apricot. No mistaking it when you see it.

Very nice!

Although my pic doesn't show off the color as deep and bright as it actually is, does my Paco carry some apricot phase genes??? If I ever got him a female that was 100% would they produce some babies of this phase?

I guess this picture tells it all?

Zoe, I didn't know you liked colubrids, it's a good looking snake.
