    I have no experience with gtp's but I always thought pure kofiau islands always stayed fully yellow into adulthood? Nice green trees though either way!

    No, unfortunately not really. There are some nice blues that come out of Kofiau as well and all Kofiau GTPs can turn green anytime in their adult lifes. Happens a lot with females when breeding hormones kick in.

    They are quite bitey, especially if you try to pick them up from perches at night. That also stresses them a lot. One way to do it is to remove the perch with the snake and let them treat you like a branch. That works a lot better.

    Thanks! Those markings have a purple tinge as well, really cool.

    I think I shot a very cool video this week of the yellow Kofiau Morelia viridis... I need to use this camera more for video it seems:

    Nice video, I really enjoyed that. Such a cool snake!

    Thanks!
