My dark girl

WOW....let me just pick my jaw up off the floor here.

Shes a real stunner, for a split second there I thought MOJAVE GHI! But that's an amazing normal for sure, I'd love to have her in my collection for some dark morph projects. I'll be following this thread so hopefully we'll be seeing some baby pictures in here! Maybe even a similar baby for sale, fingers crossed.

We're on the edge of our seats here, Fancy.

Shes going into what will be her Pre-Lay shed now, and is looking very fat.

As for the babies, we are scratching our heads.
Chances are, the trait may not exhibit itself right away. When we purchased this girl, she didn't look like this. The smokey-ness of her belly was there, and some dark coloration on her sides, however, it has gotten higher, and higher with each shed, until all that remained of her original pigmentation is the dorsal highlight you see here. So, it could take time for the babies to change color the same way? :please::confusd::D

Thought this would be a helpful way of illustrating the color change.

AAAnd speak of the devil. Pre-lay shed this morning.

I remember seeing a thread about somebodys adult normal suddenly getting a lighter colored head that starts traveling down the animal with every shed, pretty much the reverse of what seems to be happening here. Maybe you just have a one off animal with a harmless condition, I'm not about to bet money that this is genetic but that's a beautiful dark girl and I really hope it proves out for you!

She just laid 6 big fat eggs. :D

Possible black lace?

Awesome!!!! I really hope it proves out for you! I'd love to work with it if it does.

:please:I sure hope so. :please:


On a side note, the day after laying, she went right back on feed! Took 2 small rats like they were nothing.
