I thought putting these two pictures together would be cool....and it really shows how drastic a normal ball python can change color during a shed...and yes, that is the same bp...the mighty thor... I hope you guys like this...

You'd think he'd be camera shy with the before pics not the after. He should be going look at me I'm gorgeous! I'm ready for my close up Mr. Seville.

[Smynx]

MY BP'S THE SAME ALSO MY C.REDTAIL / HOG IS LIKE NIGHT AND DAY(BIGTIME)

Those are just excellent pictures Daniel. Actually I'm wondering if they maybe should be stickied or something as they show very clearly what the difference is. Might be really helpful to brand new b.p. owners to actually see (rather than just read).

Just a thought.

Oh btw, absolutely lovely pair of b.p.'s! Thor and Sif are sweet! Will you be continuing the theme when you name the new hypo?


~~Jo~~

[daniel1983]

Of course I just have not decided which name yet

I was thinking either :

Frigg - wife of Odin, champion of marriage and motherhood, goddess of love and fertility

OR

Valkyrie - ("Choosers of the Slain") A group of beautiful young women, mounted upon winged horses and armed with helmets and spears. They watch over the battlefields to choose the bravest of those who have been slain and take them to Valhalla.

I did think about calling our snake Jormangund (the giant serpent that kills, and is killed by, Thor at Ragnarok) but decided it was a bit OTT and Monty just seemed to stick

[Ginevive]

Cool! At least you're not claiming that your snake mysteriously changed colors overnight and is now a morph! hehe.
It is amazing how pale they go before a shed.
