So as I log on to check Bob Clark's Facebook page for any cool auctions here I happened to notice he has a female pied Burm who produced a nice clutch about a week ago......and I almost laid an egg myself.
I do not know the story as to how he obtained a Pied, but as to my knowledge they were not a morph every available in the US in any capacity. I heard about them maybe five years ago but there was only one dude in the Philippines to have owned them. Ever since the trash piece of legislation known as the Lacey act went into affect, import on Burms (and therefore any new morphs) have been banned......unlike Retics where new morphs may still be imported.
The Lacey act left keepers with the available options and any combination the following list can produce (which were the ones IN the US when the ban went into effect:
Albino
Granite
Green
Hypo
Caramel (very rare)
Labyrinth (very rare)
Well.....assuming this clutch hatches out well, we can add another morph to that list! WAY TO GO Bob. Gonna have to get the rest of the story on this.....of course I assume a pied hatchling will run as much as new car but I can wait for a price drop.
