Piebald!

My female pied arrived yesterday and I couldn't be more pleased. She's currently at 600g.

She has a really odd purple color, similar to a super mojo's head, on the ventral side of her head and on the lateral sides of her neck. I'm not really sure what's going on with that (maybe something genetic??), but in my opinion, it adds to her beauty. The purple was really hard to capture on camera, but I'll try to snap some better pics once she's settled in.

One of her future boyfriends should be arriving tomorrow....Thanks for looking!

Re: Piebald!

My god you lucky son of a gun...She is gorgeous! Congratulations on getting such a gem of a snake. I like how the back half of her is white except for a blotch on the tail.

Re: Piebald!

First, congratulations on a great genetic addition to your collection. Secondly, all of my pieds also have a purple chin. It is genetic in that all pieds have it, it's nothing special.

Thank you! Agreed, I think she's pretty close to 50/50

First, thanks! Second, also thank you; I haven't seen many pieds in person, so I wasn't sure, but I appreciate the clarification.

How much of a deal was it? Now I am curious considering the prices I have seen at the few expos I have been to lately.
