Erytheia's New Skin (Lots of pics, DUW)

Erytheia shed today, so I took her out for some pictures in her new skin. This girl is an enigma to me. She looks just like the Strawberry pictured on Ian's site. The only thing I know about her (and that is just what I was told, no fact yet) is that she is het for Butter. One of these days I'll try to prove that out, but what I'm more intrigued about is whether or not she really is a Strawberry. I've looked at tons of pictures of Hypos and she just doesn't resemble any of them. What do you guys think?


Erytheia, 0.1 (possible Strawberry) Hypo, yearling.

She is a lovely girl! She does kind of resemble my boy, and I purchased him as a hypo...

...but I am by no means an expert morph IDer! I hope she proves out for you. :)

If she was sold to you as a hypo, then that's probably what she is. Remember that there is a ton of variance between different examples of the same morph. I have a hypo het lavender stripe girl who has VERY similar markings. Strawberry isn't that common for it to be widely spread in the gene pool yet.

That being said, it is possible that it cold be a strawberry, I had a "ghost" corn turn out to be an ultra anery even though it was purchased before ultra was even really around. But it's unlikely.

Regardless she's a good looking snake for sure! I'd test her against an amber or something if you wanted to know what type of hypo she was.
