Odd looking burm

What do you guys think of this burm. It is supposedly wild caught.

Looks hot to me but I'm not very familiar with burm genetics. Where as it caught at? I wonder how long it will be until new mutations start arising in the burms down in the 'Glades...

Looking at it again, do we know that it was alive? It also looks like all of its scales may have been rubbed off.

Yes it is alive. The friend who sent me the pic has it now.

Are all of the scales attached and where was it caught (i.e. Everglades, Africa)?

Not sure exactly where it was caught and as far as I know all scales are still intact.

It honestly looks like a scaleless that still has some scales. You can see where there is a sheen coming from the darker spots along the back but the sides are more like a flat paint job, no light reflection from them. Got any pictures that are more close up?

more pics please!very interesting

I can't say much about the picture other than it looks neat, but Burms aren't from Africa. They're originated from Southern and South East Asia. Hence the name Burmese. ;)

I say more pics please! :)

Ill see if I can't get more pics

Hmmm... African Rock pythons then. Got the two confused, thanks for pointing that out.

it is very interesting would look even better bred to a labyrinth

Where you able to get any more pics of him Chris? He looks interesting haha I wanna see a stretched out pic

No, unfortunately I was not able to get any more pics of it. Although I found out that it was probably a pet release "escape" as it was found in the woods near where I live. I was also told that is it a pearl? morph but have no way of knowing for sure.

its not a pearl I have a male that I can post a pic up of. Who owns it? Ive read about this burm before on another forum. And is it male or female? Whoever has it really needs to work to see if its genetic.
?

I'm surprised that if it's a pet "escape" that the owners haven't been searching like mad for it. I know that they could probably sell it REAL easy for top dollar if they wanted to get rid of it. Even uneducated snake people have to know that that thing is gorgeous and rare.

Years ago Dave Lawson had a burm or two like that in his possession. I think it turned out he stole them from someone though....lol I have no idea whatever happened to them.

Said its your buddies?? That's crazy. Get more pics.
Because this pic is all over the web and nobody has a clue who it belongs to and where it came from. I know 2 burm breeders that if that snake was local.
They pay some thousands for it. See if they could prove it res or dom.
So you've seen this snake in person?? Did you take this pic? Because its on bird forums ever burm forum. Ball python forum. Reptile uk forum. I mean everywhere lol

Yes a friend of mine claimed to have this burm in his possession. I asked when I could come over and see it and never heard back. I asked him later when I went to his job (had to make a purchase not about the snake), he told me he has sold it to a guy. He said he didn't take anymore pics and he told me that it was a pearl. So as far as whether or not he really had this snake I don't know because I never saw it with my own eyes. I wish I had, I certainly would of taken more pics.
