Hi guys! My first snake, Ignis, has been an absolute dream so far, and I suspect there's a non-zero probability that I will be getting another BP soon (most likely at the Pomona Reptile Super Show in January). My original plan had actually been for a BEL - before Iggy wiggled onto the scene and stole my heart - but I am curious about the variation amongst BELs depending on their gene combos. I see babies with all sorts of "bonus features," from purple heads to pale yellow dorsal stripes, as well as differences in how blue their eyes look. On the other hand, I have been told that as they grow into adulthood, BELs will all eventually reach that uniform all-white look.

So with that said, I'd love to see your photos of your lovely blue-eyed lucies, young and old! If you could note their age, as well as their particular gene combo if you happen to know, that would be incredibly helpful too.

[As a side note, I'm not talking about black-eyed lucies (or the elusive "red-eyed lucy"/Cherry Bomb) ... but I certainly won't object if you want to show off pics of those as well!]
