New Butter

[anti-]

New butter female, about 6 months old. The yellows already coming out.

What do you think of it?

That's not a butter, its an amel. But its a very nice looking one! Congrats on the pick up.

I saw his parents and they were Butters, and the photo is actually redder than that snake. I guess only time will tell...

[Blue Apple Herps]

If the parents were butters, then they either weren't actually butters, or are not the parents of this snake. I don't want to come off as being rude or trying to discourage you, but that is definitely not a butter. No mistaking it. Sorry.

no need to excuse yourself.

In fact thanks a lot for your input.

Can you explain why you're certain though? just by the colours? or maybe head pattern or pattern etc?

Thanks again

but the one in the pic you gave me is an adult while mine is still a 6month old, I've seen pics of juvenile butters which are very similar to mine...

I don't know what to do.
