Changing GTP

[boa]

My comment wasn't in relation to the smugglers but the fact that it was referred to as an American morph when in fact it is a natural colour change.

[Codered]Boa, its not an issue for me. In fact I was hoping to find some of these varieties My initial statement was supposed to be funny .. you know smugglers getting overtime and all. Next time I'll use lot and lots of smiles [/quote]

lol, I'm too used to typing about snakes obviously :roll: :wink:

A long time ago all Chondros were brother and sister living in the same land. Over time the earth seperated and diferent islands were formed including Australia with a few of the Brother and sister Chondros on each island. They continued to breed but only within each island population as and so each island population developed particular locality characteristics.
Isn't it likely that given enough ofspring there would be the odd throw back. Whilst Aru "type" Chondros are generally the same the odd throwback may turn up which has an appearance closer to another island type.
Even after the islands split it is likely that animals travelled between islands as driftwood of by aborigine. Locality discriptions are general and there will always be exceptions to the norm. If you like exceptions they are retained and a new color morph is bred If not all the purists out their would of course euthanase the freek.

For what it's worth (and we all know it wont be considered worth much :wink: ) I think she's gorgeous Lily. But then I'm one of those freaks who thinks "boring old Coastal Carpets" are beautiful so what do I know about what's attractive in a snake of any description?

[GreenWillow]

Oops Sorry if I sounded a bit "sour grapish" for a moment there, TB. I was having a dig at all your little followers! I read a rule recently that says we musn't like a snake unless you've bred it. Methinks they didn't take it for the joke that it was :roll:

If Green Lotus turns out to be a "toothpaste chondro" I'll come up north in my bikini and you can help me drown my sorrows with a few beers! :wink:

[soulweaver]

This is Green Lotus. She is 10mths old. I think she looks beautiful as is and would be thrilled if she didn't change anymore!

Would be worth a lot more if it didn't change anymore then this

[GreenWillow]

Not to Trueblue! He wants it to be a colgater so that he gets to drink with me in a bikini! Right TB?

[TrueBlue]

dam right, youve got to bring your expensive frilly lace knickers too.

[GreenWillow]

Naturally! I'd forgotten about those for a moment!

[soulweaver]

there for TB!!

[TrueBlue]

any way i dont have any followers.??? thats an insult to them, they just appreciate healthy happy snakes that hate thermostats.

[Pythoninfinite]

And the possibility of hybridising eh TB? I think you do have followers tho, even if you haven't noticed them yourself... or maybe they're just hangers on???
