I'm almost 100% positive that it is too priceless to sell.

giggity giggity gig-i-ty!
Life is like a game of poker. You can play each hand to the best of your ability but you are still going to run into a bad beat from time to time. What matters is how you handle it. Do you go on tilt or can you maintain your composure & rebuild your stack?

Re: I love "Leucy" **PICS**
Okay you experts out there don't go laffing at my questions now but looking at the lovely snake I wondered if being that it's a total absence of the more normal darker colors of Ball Pythons, does it react different to things, or need special care as far as heat since it's so radicially different than the "norm"? Do these Leucy's hatch quite white and then change a bit as they age? Having never seen a Leucy or a Pied (my gosh there's a country song in there I think! )
The white on a Leucy seems very different than the white of a Pied. Why? Do snakes like this exist in the wild or are they purely something man has designed (kind of think they'd get nailed by a predator standing out like that) Could a snake like that get sunburned (okay now no laffing LOL - I have an enquiring mind).

Nope, with ambient air temps, color and heat have nothing to do with each other.

None of the solid white blue eye’d lucy’s have darkened with age (there isn't really anything to darken), but the blue eyed lucy’s with the stripes and eye smudges do seem to be changing colors in my opinion. Can't comment on the black eyed lucy’s ... I've only seen one hatchling from the English line in person and one other black eye’d animal but it was an adult.

Yes and no. The white seems to be the same, but on the English line lucy's, the scalation seemed different to me. More grainy maybe? Don't know why.

Black eye'd lucy’s have been pulled from the wild, but the blue eyed snakes are all man made as far as I know. Someone may be sitting on something.

Actually, because ball pythons are so secretive in general and hide most of the day, many visual morphs are pulled out of the wild as adults that you wouldn't think would make it. Probably has a lot to do with why we see so much variation in ball pythons.

Re: I love "Leucy" **PICS**
Wow. Is it the picture, or do I see a little bit of color on the head and along the dorsal line? Is that only present in this one line of leucistics?
Another question.. I've seen pictures of the pearl ball python, and it looks pearlescent.. nearly metallic, is this only the photo as well? How do they differ in appearence to leucys?
