    took the leap...got a pied!

    After years of staring at all of your pied pictures, I finally decided to get one myself! The CRBE seemed like the perfect place too.

    I know everyone has their own opinion on high white vs. low white but I personally love low white pieds, and this girls pattern and colour caught my eye instantly!





    The last pic reminded me of the eye of Sauron from lord of the rings.. might help me choose a name for her

    Re: took the leap...got a pied!

    Lovely snake.
    I like how much orange they have. Low whites tend to be my preference for pied except for lightning pied, those i prefer around 50-50 to 60-40(either side of hi-low).
    But, really it is all just personal preference as the hi-low factor does not seem to be genetic or atleast not predictably genetic as hi whites can throw low whites and vice versa.

    Great looking pied! You picked a nice one for your first and I like the LOTR name reference. Congrats!
