    Help me choose a Lesser

    I have been looking at Lessers over the net. I have noticed that the coloration of babies is dark and rich and varies from snake to snake. I want a lesser that turns out to be a real vivid platinum adult like some I have seen at the Reptile shows. Since no babies exhibit this, is there a way to tell which babies will grow into vibrant platinums?

    Re: Help me choose a Lesser

    Hi,

    Not sure I understand what you're asking?

    A lesser platinum cannot turn into a platinum though.

    But if you just mean you prefer a particular look in adult lesser platinums then maybe finding a picture of a good example and putting the link up for people to try and help might be a good idea.

    Re: Help me choose a Lesser

    Sorry, I don't mean turn into a Platinum, just a real light colored Lesser that has that nice sheen on the sides. The babies all are darker and more brightly colored. I have been told they change as they get older, but is there a way to tell which will be the more striking adults?
