It's been awhile - HALO updated pic!
I realized while I was in the room yesterday evening taking some pics for ID records and the website, that I haven't taken any pics of Halo in awhile. For those that don't know the story, a simple search will bring up quite a few threads. An old member here received a female that was gravid from a pet owner that kept a pair of Ball Pythons. The male was already gone, and untraceable by the time the eggs hatched. Out of eight eggs, four hatched. Halo was the most extreme, and her three sisters looked different as well, but not as extreme. The four eggs that didn't hatch had 4 (FEMALES) that looked like Halo. So eight eggs, and eight females. The snake that laid the eggs now resides at VPI. I have Halo and two of her sisters. The remaining sister went to another forum member, and has since died. The sisters that I got have been good feeders, but they will not eat appropriate sized prey, and only eat very small meals. Therfore, although they are 3 years old, they are all about 1000 grams.
Below is an updated pic of Halo. She is difficult to photo for some reason, but this is the best I could do.

I hope you enjoy the pic,

Thanks for the update Tim. She is a really gorgeous snake. I absolutely LOVE her. The contrast and totally awesome pattern is just wonderful. I hope she makes some babies for you soon. Has the original mother produced any other clutches that you know of?
