If I was in the market for a diamond I wouldn't buy that because it doesn't fit into my idea of a pure diamond,
its pattern is all over the place. In the end its what you are willing to set your standards to. Do you want a pet diamond then its just fine. Do you want to breed diamonds then its probably not.

So it seems fair to say that both snakes are pure, crossed, hybrid intergrades. I bet you're glad you asked the question now ?

not all diamonds are perfect, they dont all have perfectly lined rosetes so one that doesnt look like a true diamond probably is, heck you would probably find that diamonds go as far up as the mid north coast but are like a differnt type diamond e.g. like blonde macs and striped carpets. the intergrade term is just a load of BS. no diamond pythons have perfect rosets and every single one is different. imo there both diamonds

it seems if i diamond doesnt have the perfect diamond rosettes its no longer a diamond, take a look at coastals, jungles, woma's, bhps etc, all have heaps of variation, why cant diamonds?

exactly, you would probably find they go up to around grafton but all the "diamond experts" beg to differ

if you go to gosfod you can find golds and black and whites less than 5km from each other, there is that much difference over a short distance. half of these internet "diamond experts" have never seen a wild one before. Sweetangel, you have a very nice diamond there
