Hypo BHP

Found this on an american site and thought I would show poeple here. The owner says that it is a hypo, but it still has some black on it.

The pic wont come up for some reason. So people will have to go to www.moreliapythons.com and go to the pythons section.

I don't like it. The banding has strong contrast which is nice but I find the markings on the head to be very unnattractive. Woma/bhp cross seems possible as the head markings is between the two. Not a fan of this bhp.

i've held one with a red head.not patched black like that in the head.is that the one you are talking about browns at first glance it looks like a freaky woma.siblings of this animal show similar traits.i think ppl are in the next couple of years going to produce some amazingly different looking bhp's.

I like the bands on it, but yeah, the head just looks a bit wierd to me. But as the rock says may turn out to be quite a stunner.

It's way too small to say what it will look like but it does look nice at this stage, very pale background and nice bands. I would like to see what the head looks like in a year or so.

May have been the same animal obee,Have seen some very different bhps even one that was like a reverse pieballed and a few close to bumblebees, but this one that belongs to Bob W would have to be as hypo as they come.I know there are a few others the same out there the same.There's also much lighter ones like URS and a few others have that are very different and light.

Would you call this hypo?Also about hypos I know it's only a head shot but there's a pic in Barkers book POTW which is described as appearing hypomellanistic.
