Hi all,

the red appears to shiny for normal colouration, I suspect that the animal has sloughed prematurely, I have seen similar (patchs of shiny spots in normally matt reflective snakes like copperheads) that I have kept in the past.

Certainly the olive with reddish orange on the dorsal aspect of the forebody is not unusal in SEQ D. pssamophis however this specimen is the best example I have seen.

Cheers,
Scott Eipper
