    Is this a mojave?

    Found this snake on Craigslist advertised as a mojave.

    To me it doesn't look like one.

    What do you think?

    That's a rather interesting Mohave.

    That's what I was thinking. Or a super black head?

    Thumbs up Re: Is this a mojave?

    I am no expert on genetics as it relates to bp's. It appears to be a Mojave with another unknown gene expressed in the phenotype. Can you get the sellers to tell you about the parents? If they have a clue! Buy from a breeder, someone who can pretty much give a little background info on lineage and parentage. Good luck.

    I could see that too. I'm not really in the know on either gene, but Ghi was the first thing I thought of when I saw it. Def a cool looking snake whatever the gene combo going on there is.

    No GHI, a GHI mojave is very apparent in a way this is just not. It's odd looking, but I would say only mojave.

    Why don't you save up and get the Mojave ghi from Mike Wilbanks? Maybe even do a payment plan with him for a real Mojave GHI? That is only my suggestion and opinion to you, do what makes you comfortable. Good luck.
