Would this, should this, could this be an Enchi?

We picked this little fella up a few weeks ago from Matt Lerer @ GHI Reptiles. Matt says it's an Enchi but with all the cool stuff he's hatching out, it may just be a normal. :weirdface I need to get some of that water from down there......

Anyway, thanks for looking.

If that is a normal, that is one outstanding normal:O.

But definitely doesn't look like it could be normal, I'm going with Enchi on this one.

Shoot, that is the enchiest enchi that has ever hatched!

That is certainly an enchi, and a very nice one, love the head!:D
That is nothing like a normal, you should be able to see that?

Nice pickup!:gj:

Thats for sure an Echi with a reduced pattern.

Wow, now that is without a doubt a beautiful enchi :gj:

Looks like a super!!! :O

Sorry, man, what I meant to say is, it looks like a normal. Bad luck! I'll give it a home if you want to get rid of it and try for a real enchi....

One of the best I have seen.

looks reduced! that's an amazing enchi =o

That is actually a super enchi isn't it? Head pattern looks identical to the one on the NERD website and the "immense" reduced pattern just screams super! If you bought it as a heterozygous I reckon you got lucky with a homo.... Male or female?

Wow that thing is bad!!! Super enchi? I ask cause I don't have much experience with them.

I thought the same thing when I saw the pic that Matt posted on another forum but according to Matt and Kevin McCurley it is not a Super Enchi. It did hatch out in a clutch that produced a Super Enchi Lesser.

Agreed!

If the clutch was from enchi x enchi pairing and hatched out a super I reckon it IS a super.....just my opinion. Far from expert but that looks like no hetero enchi i've ever seen. There can apparently be lots of difference in how supers look but to my mind that is a GOOD super, not a BAD super. If it's a male PLEASE (to the OP) test breed it soon!!!! :P

I think I'm in love! haha. What a gorgeous snake. :bow:

Might be an enchi... lol Grats Louis!

Justin

Meh...just another freakishly, unbelievably sweet looking Enchi. :D:bow:

FINALLY!!!!! I've been waiting for you to post pictures of that bad boy! I was so excited when you bought him!!!!!! Congrats on that hot baby!!!!

Could I get a belly shot, I am still not positive on that one.

Great pick up Louis, your collection is top notch, you certainly have a keen eye for snakes.

I do not know man, this one has me rethinking what I would mate with your new Black Bee.

WOW =O
I love that head pattern! Fantastic looking snake!

Gorgeous! I will bet anyone anything that he's a Super too

You're joking, right???

That is a very hot Enchi!

Awesome Enchi! Kind of looks like a tiger pattern!

Whooooooaa! That is the just insane(runs off to scour every reptile classifieds for an enchi).

Good luck finding another non super enchi that looks like that......

The problem with this (if it IS a super enchi) is that by saying it's a Heterozygous enchi then it makes every other one look rubbish.

If it ISN'T a super then I guess every other one IS rubbish :rofl:

What ever it is, they dont make them like that no more:P

Louis he is amazing, nicest I have seen.Dibs when you hatch something from this guy.

That's the hottest Enchi I've ever seen! :bow:

Thanks to everyone for your comments and kind words. :)

To those who said they think our boy is a Super Enchi, I can only say I wish that were true. But on the other hand, if he's just an Enchi, I can hardly wait to see his Super Enchi progeny.

Ahhh, but that's a ways off.

Thanks again for everyone's input. :salute:

Wow Louis! That is a great looking Enchi!!! May be the best I've seen yet!

I love that super reduced pattern and the color is amazing too!

Good luck with him!

Tom

He's awesome! I'm sure you have some fun projects planned out for him once he's older :p

Tell me about it. I have actually been looking for the right female enchi for about 6 months and just haven't found one that blows me away yet. I am hopeful there will be some nice examples at Daytona this August.

It's not a normal..but it's not just an Enchi either..I love it whatever it is..

Gonna go w/ Enchi.5 on that one. Absolutely gorgeous! :gj:

Good score Louis!!!

I'm going with Super Enchi because of the weird head stripes...Seems to be a Super trait.

Nice! I was drooling over that one when he originally posted the clutch pictures a while back. :gj:

Holy cow, I agree, that is one of the nicest enchis on the planet! The head is wicked!

That is an amazing enchi. Enchi are great already, but that one is just outstanding. Congrats
