These pics will give you a bit of an idea. This pair is one of our breeding pairs that have been breeding for us for the last 4 years. Some people on this forum actually have babies from this pairing. We refer to them as our PXP or JBXLilly pairing because they came from Python Pete's line of jungles. Anyway, I wish I had some more pics in between, but these will give you a good idea.

You just never know with jungles how they will be, but in general they will peak at about 1-2 yrs old and sometimes deteriorate colorwise from there gaining brown in their yellow areas. I would also strongly suggest anyone looking to get nice jungles to inquire about seeing pics of the parents. As has been said before, if the breeder is hesitant or won't show pics of parents, then more than likely they are FUGLY. Also, make sure you see a good portion of the body and not just a head shot because they usually don't brown up on their heads so sometimes people will just show head shots to help make their adults look better. Anyway, happy hunting to anyone looking to get a nice jungle. It definantly takes some time and some luck, that is why you rarely see trophy jungles for sale because with all the work it takes to get one, once you have one you just don't let it go.
