Unusual Hatchlings (pics)

Theyre all amazing but I really like peanut and the pastel too.... no white pied! I like it. And people think low white pieds are a bad thing? no white pieds look good to me.

This little girl was from a het pied x het pied pairing. When she pipped, we thought "low white pied" because of her markings. Well, if she's pied, she's the first ever NO-white pied. So, we think that she's got some weird het thing going on or that she's just a really unusual normal. She's very small, and she's having shed problems. We're working with our exotic animal vet (who calls her "peanut") to keep her healthy.

Look for small white crescents on her sides where the pattern meets the belly & an all white belly. I suspect she is pied. But it could be a random odd thing. Here's an extreme low-white girl I have here. The only white she has is at the upper right in the photo:




Belly shot (different Pied)- does your girl's look like this?:

Those are some really cool animals, thanks for sharing.

Nope, she has some random checkerboarding (see below). That's why we thought probably some odd het thing going on or just a weird normal. I was just joking about the no-white pied thing. Glad to be corrected--that there actually are some.

I love peanut! What a cutie!

That's exactly the reason why I much perfer low white pieds. I love the distorted pattern, it looks way cool! Congrats on hatching her, whatever she may be!

Here to hoping she pulls through for you!

Wow... I LOVE that first one! If you ever get tired of her, I'd be happy to take her off your hands.

Peanut is a cutie too, of course, and that pastel is super weird in a cool way... I'd call him a blurry pastel, if it turned out to be a genetic morph. Just a thought (from a complete newbie), but could Peanut be some kind of "extreme paradox" normal/pied? Because the belly doesn't look like a pied, but the rest does - odd for sure.

I really do like the markings of your "weird" pastel. I am drawn to unusual colora or markings on a BP. Peanut is cute as a button.

They look very cool no doubt! But they remind me of what a clutch looks like that has had a rough incubation, and infact the belly shot of one of the snakes is the biggest piece of evidence.

Very pretty snakes! Especially Peanut, she is just too cute!
