Epic's journey

A member here gave me a great idea. To make a thread that shows in chronological order Epics growth and color change. So I am going to do that here. Every time I take pictures of him, I will post them in this thread, until he has grown and completed his color change! He is a December 2012 Jayapura.

These are two crummy cell phone pictures of the day he came home.

This one shows how tiny he is. That is the tip of my finger, and the green perches are hangers.

And his most recent pictures, fresh after a shed, outside on a nice sunny day.

makes me want one.... how much did you get him for? price is my enemy

The different locales go for different prices, Biaks seem to be the cheapest I've seen. I paid $375 for him. Red neos are a lot more. However, neonates in general are cheaper than juveniles.

$375-450 is a decent price for a yellow neonate GTP depending on lineage and/or locality. GTPs don't have to cost an arm and leg, lol. I actually purchased my adult male for $400 and my hubby found his yearling jayapura for the same. Red neos will go for a lot more and some localities are much higher too. Biaks are generally the most common so they tend to be a bit cheaper.


Following Epic!! He is amazing Doolittle!! :bow:

That's good to know, thank you both!
I figured they wouldn't be as inexpensive as a corn snake, lol. I think the price is pretty fair for what a person is getting. Not only is it an attractive body type, but it goes through a color change as well... and they're just eye candy in my oppinion lol.
Maybe someday when I have a extra few bucks and another tank I'll get one for myself.

What colors do juveniles come in? And what are the colors for adults?

He just shed again. He is growing like a weed! And he loves his mouse pinks. :p. Just have a crummy cell pic or two for ya today.

This one was blurry, but came the closest to catching how bright yellow he is.
