First Blush!

Okay, so it's a glow and not a blush.... :P

I thought she had been glowing for a couple months, but I wondered if it was all in my head. Well, I know now that she is definitely glowing! One of my friends got her out and asked me if he had the right snake!!!

Pre-Glow (an old picture, but the colors are accurate):

I wasn't sure I'd be able to tell the difference...but man, that's somethin' else!!! I'm so excited for my first clutch!!! (She was bred to a Lesser.)

Now I'm obsessed with checking her daily, waiting for the ovulation! I'm so impatient! :D

Looking good :gj:

Here's to hoping you beat the odds. :8:

If her pattern can carry over with the lesser gene, you should have some great looking babies.

Thank you! I sure hope so!

The Lesser has a nice pattern, too (semi-reduced; very few alien heads/keyholes). The female actually has some bronze/green blushing that's a similar color to the Lesser, so I'm hoping the offspring turn out a little more bronze/green.

Here are some pictures of the male. Lock and load!

Ha! I feel dumb now. I forgot about these pictures; could've used them for comparison with the glow instead of using an ancient one. :stupidme:

OMG...you are going to be a grandma!!! The difference in color is astounding!! Congrats...and thank you for sharing the pics.

Good luck with her, I love the glow :)

Well, if you end up with any female lessers you are willing to part with, please look my way.

She does look a lot like my glowing female! It's amazing how much they can change!

Congrats and good luck!

Unless I get some weird-looking offspring, I'm planning on selling all of them, so I will contact you if I end up with some females!
