diamond jungle cross

I want to show you the incredible beauty of this intergrade. Not to provoke discussion about crosses but just to show you how nice they can turn out. This animal has no black tipping and these crosses don´t seems to suffer from cancers or Diamond Python Syndrome and the like. He´s one off my nicest carpets and still improving every shed. Beste regards Mark

That sure is a gorgeous specimen there Mark. Quite stunning!

Looks like a pure Diamond to me. It's hard to see any indications of any Jungle, perhaps the only sign is that there's not so many yellow spots on the head.
Though having said that, you can get some pure Diamonds with yellow bars and immaculate black areas.

What's the percentage of that cross : I assume it's 88% Diamond.

Here in Oz, we don't use the term intergrade for crosses and/or hybrids.
This is to avoid confusion with the naturally occurring intergrades.

Cheers

Hi Zen: it´s ´´only´´ a 50% cross (both parents were 50% crosses too).
Cheers Mark

Here's mine also a 50/50 with the parentage but nobody has yet to pick this as not being pure jungle and has thrown to the opposite way as yours.I recall a few of the anti hybrid people liking this particular animal and knowing it was a hybrid.

Enjoy

hi browns,
i don't have to tell you how much i like your 50/50 jungle pictured above,
it will always be a fav of mine, i still love her colour,

hi mark,
stunning 50/50 diamond/jungle, she is up there,
i'll add a pic of my natural intergrade, she is a joining of
a coastal and diamond in the wild over mamy generations,
she is a 4th generation captive bred intergrade, and in my
opinion one very nice snake, both in looks and personality,

cheers,
steve........

^^ Browns and Steve, you both have very nice crosses. I´m impressed by the way the coastal cross looks like, very nice.

^^ Pythonrockchik, he´s an 04, thanks for the compliments.
