It looks like a neonatal Epicrates. Young ones have the large head and big eyes. They fill out fast

Re: Epicrates Chrysogaster Chrysogaster

I have bred several epicrates and owned more at neonate stage - none have heads as flat or angular as the pics - I am not doubting it to be what it is described as - somebody far more knowledgable than me has classified it - it just looks unlike any other epicrates in my experience. It does look more ATB to me also in it's head.

And apparently they're brown as neonates.
Because everybody wants them and he figures he can get the $$$ from somebody willing to pay it.

Again, cool picts, and I agree it would be nice to see more epicrates in owners' hands!
