    Baby False Water Cobras

    These are 3 to 5 days out of the egg. Most are blue and so are nowhere near as sharp as they will be.

    It does seem that there is a Super form of Hypomelanism in these snakes. Some of them are much lighter already.

    You can see the dark ones, the hets, quite plainly. They are much more heavily marked.

    There are also some hypos that seem to have white borders on the saddles and a much lighter saddling than the hets. There are also a few that are even lighter that don't have as distinct a white outline.

    Once they shed I'll get some better pictures up to show more clearly what I'm describing.
