    Baby Coastal Carpet for sure, and pretty thin if it's a recent photo... when did it hatch do you know? Should be at least 6 months old by now, and a bit more robust looking than that, but if the photo was taken by the breeder just after hatch, it looks OK.

    Coastal though, not a Diamond - the pattern is too large and bold.

    I'm with Jamie on this one - Coastal... As soon as I looked at it, I thought, nup, not a Diamond.... Sorry!

    And yes, if that pic is just after it hatched, all well and good, but if that's a recent pic, be warned!

    Just my two cents' worth!

    ***! Just as the person selling the snake to post pics of the parents and be done with it.

    Honestly the ammount of people putting their two cents in and have clearly know idea astounds me. (actually on second thoughts it does not)

    Norm have that crash helmet ready just in case of keyboard shrapnel. lol
