Ok I want to cry and Im sure some if not all will lol But How do I post a pic?

To post photos, first, you will need to upload your photos to your Gallery on this website or to a photo hosting website like Photobucket, Flickr, etc...

-Open up the Reply window to the thread you want to post them in.

-Open a separate internet browser window and go to the site where your photos are posted.

-Usually below the photo, you will find some URL links or codes. Look for the one that begins with [IMG] or sometimes it may be listed as "BB Code". Highlight and copy this entire code then paste it in your "Reply" window.

-Click on the "Preview Post" button to see if the photo becomes visible. If it does click "Submit Reply". If not, then double check that you copied the right code or the entire code. The end of the code should be [/IMG]...

Definitely post pictures.

I have heard of this happening before, but I cannot remember if it was localized like you say or if it affected the entire snake.

Here is the thread where the spider lost color, and at the end of the thread, started regaining some of it back...

Mid life Pied Crissis..... whats funny is he is a possible het for pied I wanted to breed him this year but then the white blotches happen so I pulled him out of breeding

[jager08]

but if he is het pied? why couldnt he have some pied genes ( which we all know he does) that we cant see-- yet he is showing that he is a "weak" pied??? reminder im new and if im a completely idiot shoot me!

[ElwinBore]

To my understanding that is not how it works. I know there is (and i know its debated over constaintly) visual Markers for het pied ( he has the clean belly but thats it and I would asume he would have shown the pied before now he is the offspring of a het pied female and a pastel het male.

That is very very odd. I'm not saying anything is for sure, but the Pied gene does some really weird stuff. Like how BHB had their "Mimosa Pied" and (correct me if I'm wrong, please) it was visual pied even though we all know pied is recessive and it was only a het.

Again, not saying anything is 100% but it could just be some of that freaky pied stuff that goes down with the hets.
