Funky Little Lesser Girl

So i picked up this little lesser girl from a friend of mine not to long ago, and she keeps getting brighter with every shed! She looks like she ate a lightbulb.

Her blushing is very clean and clear...
I think there may be something to her, any idea's guys ?

Thank You Adam! :)

I have a male butter that's "omg" yellow and super crazy high blushings like urs. Also has the deep black outlines on the yellow spots and stripes like hers also

Lessers just generally get brighter rather than brown out. And Everyone says there is no difference between Lesser and Lesser Platinums. That girl is just a good bright girl like mine. I know where your at:)

i'll be sure to post some more pictures up as her as she grows... Thanks for the comments.

Here are some pictures i found when she was a tiny 70 grams!

Wow she is smoking! She almost looks like a pastel lesser. I can't wait to see how she turns out with some size on her! Great pick up man.

Thank You! She has some good size on her now, i think she's around 200+ grams or so... And she keeps getting brighter by the day! ;)

Actually, I think the Platinum being referred to is the Ralph Davis true Platinum, aka the Platty Daddy, which is indeed a separate gene than just Lesser.

Stunning animal either way.

Thank You Stephanie! I agree they do vary that's for sure

for real she looks like a fire mojave. Go to the morph list and type fire mojave and they look pretty similar

My lesser male did the exact same thing. Started out looking like a bright Mohave, got brighter with age, and now looks just like yours. Almost neon yellow with tons of blushing.

Yep. I actually double checked today since you asked lol. Absolutely no markings on his belly and the sides are very faded like yours. I actually had someone trying to tell me he was a mojo because he was so dark when he hatched. I'm actually beginning to wonder if it has something to do with the difference between butter and lesser... Maybe, just maybe, butters are the ones that lighten up drastically like that with all that blushing and buttery yellow but lessers do not. if that's the case, there may actually be a difference in those genes. One being a lightening and fading gene, while the other remains more golden looking. That would mean there are a lot of lessers being called butters and vice versa. Hmmm, something to ponder huh? I've worked with both and my leucy who was sold to me as a lesser leucy, produces "lessers" that look just like my butter and do the same lightening up as they age.

I'm one of the ones that believes there is a difference and more breeders need to catalog which snakes do what as they age and compare photos of many from hatch to 1 year of age.

By the way, that little snake you have there is gorgeous!
