Me too. The Seller said he is already 288 grams so he is holding his color well so far.

I'll post some once I have him and let him settle in a little.

Absolutely! I've even seen hets and non-hets coming from the same male but different females where one was Hypo, and just the presence of the gene seems to influence the look.

LOL. I don't know about the plus, but I am going to have to give some serious thought about the first season he is ready and what direction I want to go. I look forward to seeing pictures of yours.

---

Thanks and good luck with your project. Here's hoping you hit the "Killer Pied".

Thanks. Like I said, I had spent a lot of time looking at Pieds before I finally saw this one and pulled the trigger. I know we get very anxious to produce something and this hobby is a waiting game regardless. However, I'd rather wait years and over pay to get that one right animal.

Thanks Deborah. I'm pretty excited about him.

I myself have never been one to jump on the pied wagon. There's just something about them that does not personally appeal to me. (Even tho I do own a pied male and Het female) I get intrigued by the pattern mutation in morphs and I have seen very very few pied that have jumped out at me as interesting. IMO the pied gene just throws a dirty, blurred, smeared on example of whatever morph it is combined with while giving it a neat white backdrop with clean edges. HOWEVER, this pick up you have here has got me to open your post everytime it gets bumped back to the top, simply so I can get another look :eyepoppin ... Very very very nice pick up :gj:

Mother Nature does care, that's why she made this guy just for you! What a beautiful snake.

Awesome! Hypo Pieds are great, and the pattern on your guys is really neat. I look forward to your updates.

I love the white on the tip of the tail!! Its a must in a true pied!! lol

Great addition!

Beautiful! I think I was checking him out on Kingsnake the other day. I want more pied females first.

Mmmm he looks so pretty, i adore pieds and would love to get a few, but im waiting lol

Wow! That's one smexy pied! I'm a medium white pied gal myself (please don't tell my black pastel pied gal that, I love her too but for different reasons) and that's a great mix of color and white!

That's just about my perfect idea of a pied. Beautiful!! Congrats!!

Thank you. I have been staring at the pictures I have myself. Can't wait to get him here and take some of my own pictures.

(spoken in the voice of Eeyore.) It's not much white, but I guess it will do. ............Actually I agree. I like a white tip on the tail of a pied.

Yes. He was on there. I did see a few female Ghost Pieds on there as well.

Keep waiting until you see one that makes you no longer able to wait.
