I'd like to thank Brian at BHB for a wonderful transaction and a great snake! He was great right out of the box. Meet John Cusack!

Congrats!! I have a question though, what are the main differences between a cinnamon and a normal, just because looking at your new snake I can see features that are identical to my "normal" and was just curious.

I'd like to second Missi's ?? He looks like a great snake, but mostly because he looks so similar in both color and pattern to mine
Really though, not trying to sound mean in anyway because really he's beautiful (haha rambling...) and the coloring might have something to do with the lighting in the picture but he looks a lot like a normal; more than most cinnies I've seen I think.
What is the pattern mutation cinnies are supposed to have?

edit: I think my girl maybe doesn't have as many flames as he does? Are flames one of the cinny traits?

Thanks! It's a pattern difference as well as a color difference. It's much easier to tell the differences when they are next to a normal. Of course it does not hurt that when breed together the Super Cinnamon is an all black patternless bp with a white belly...pretty sweet. Here's a link from this site that explains in more detail.

normally the color is different but that one looks kinda normal to me although camera flashs ruin colors. My pastel looks almost normal in pics lol. please dont take ofense to my comment as I am not very experienced with cinnys

I take no offense at all! He looks quite a bit different in person vs the pics. I always have problems getting pics of all of my snakes that show their true coloring. The flames are pretty nice, I think. I'll try to take some pics soon of my normal, yellowbelly and Cinny so it's easier to see differences.

Thanks! That thread pointing out the features helped. In the past few sheds Little Dude, who is a 200 gram juvenile, has developed a very light brown color all around his neck and head, I think it looks great And it just keep getting lighter. He is also getting some blushing between the light spots on his back which I hope will also develop more.

I think little dude is a great looking snake! I wish I coulp pick up more the subtle color and shade differences with him vs my normal. I love his pure white belly

Thanx!! Little Dude's ego appreciates it (and mine hehe)

Congrats! Now he just needs a boombox blasting out Peter Gabriel!
