Antaresia morphs??

[janeothejungle]

So, I vaguely recall there being offered a few months back a 'patternless' version of one of the Antaresia sp. (childrens? spotted?) I was wondering if anyone knew who was working with those, or of any other morphs of the Genus?? I also vaguely recall there being a lighter color phase of the Childrens?

Surely someone here is into this Genus?


Cheers,

Kat,

The only morphs that I am aware of in the Antaresia complex occur in the maculosa and childreni.
In maculosa, there is a recessive granite morph. I am currently working to prove out an axanthic spotted as well. Maybe this year if the breeding goes well.
In childreni, there is some patternless ones. I am not sure whether this is a genetic morph or just natural variation in the species. A lot of older specimens lose their blotches and appear patternless. Hopefully I will find out more as I have an adult male patternless that I acquired earlier this year. He came in to a rescue in Dallas as a green boa.
