Turning Green...and Orange?

This is my first GTP. Recently my GTP seems to be turning a bit green between it's eyes, which you can see below. But, also, it seems to be simultaneously turning pretty orange on the neck for the first .5 - 1 inch past the head. Is this normal? Should I take it to the vet, or just take extra pictures?

Sorry for the blurriness.

Green tree pythons turn all grean after a while. Maybe there orange because that spot is about to turn green?

Yeah, those pics are pretty useless. GTP's all turn green as they change into adulthood and sometimes you get some nice intermediate coloring as well. Nothing to fret about.

I beg to differ. :D .......about the color of adults.

Indeed? Are there lines that do not end up with coloring that is a variant of green as adults (ie green/yellow, blue/green)?? I'd love a hot pink one. ;)

Cheers,

and plenty more where those came from. I can't understand why more people don't keep these snakes. They are the perfect pet snake.....in my opinion. lol. Who wants color?! I'll have to get some calico pics up.

There you go showing off again Brandon;) Hot animals! As for the OP i wish you could get some clear shots of your chondro!

I do dig chondros (although I do not currently keep them), and those are some absolute smokers, but again, they are all variants on green bases..... I'm not interested in a pissing contest, I just stand by my initial post. I don't feel there is any detraction from the beautiful variations in allowing that they are called Green Tree Pythons for a reason.

Please do post more, they are gorgeous animals.

Cheers,
Kat

Brandon, you win! Way to make up for the crappy cell phone pix.

OP, red is nothing to worry about. Several locals will pick up a orange stage before going green.

Jane, Signalherp.com "green tree pythons" at the top and hit "kofiau island"

brandon,

i asked you a while back about tweetie. is there anyway you can post a recent shot of her?
