Re: Hypo Diamond Python

This looks to be similar to the Stardust Diamonds that are currently being worked on here in my neck of the woods by Don Patterson and Mickey of Pro Pythons.

I just checked the Stardust out and it does look like that.

Re: Hypo Diamond Python

Those are Gregs animals. Reduced pattern Diamonds. He bought them from Josh Easter from Valle animals. They have shown up in a few keepers collections over the years. Gary Valle, Dan Vamillia, Josh Easter, Jan Eric and a few keepers in Australia.

Different and cool (IMO).

Re: Hypo Diamond Python

Very beautiful snake. I do not think it is hypo. There is not much reduction in the actual melanin in this animal. It does seem to have a lot of extra yellow pigments making it hyperxanthic? Awesome animal!

Re: Hypo Diamond Python

I don't believe its a mutation, just a colour phenotype that pops up from time to time, my Female has produced offspring like the ones above.

This is a Wild caught Diamond.
