He's in rough shape, but here he is..
I got this reduced male from a friend of mine. He had been at her store for awhile and I wasnt in the market for another snake, but his reduced pattern captivated me. He had belonged to a couple; the guy was the herper, and they split up, and the girl dropped him off at the store.
He seems healthy and was feeding well at the store, but his scales along the topline are bent up and messy looking, as if he had gotten stuck in a small space (like on a cage decoration) and squeezed through. And some of his bely scales appeared to have something stuck underneath, like maybe some cypress mulch; I will get that out soon but it seemed like he was VERY stressed when i brought him home so I am letting him chill in his rubbermaid. Here is a pic of him... I had been wanting a reduced male to breed to my female and this was like fate...
He has no external parasites, thankfully; I would not have wanted to go through that!

Pretty pattern! He looks really light cocoa in the picture, is that in real life too? Lovely lovely patterning!
Poor guy! Glad he is in a great home now!

Yeah, he does have a really different, almost caramel type coloring. I was stunned when I saw him at the pet store And the good thing is, he is nearly fully grown, so it isn't like buying a light baby bp and having it darken later. He is about 4' and around 1500 grams, a little light but I will work on fattening him up!
