Like shewhomustbeobeyed said there's a big difference between quality and quantity and with jungles you usually get what you pay for so to speak but not the case for all as we all know they can still throw skuglies.These i'm sure are still the same price if not more now as held back juveniles sold after 4th shed, best coloured Athertons i've seen and as nice in the flesh.I have seen wild Athertons with the same 50/50 type patterning and black and light gold right up on the Tablelands,big animals with huge boof heads and great pattern.I'm sure there's a few others out there with animals from the same line that are just as nice,anyone?....I love true black and golds too which i call true jungles being much smaller stockier rainforest animals.

Very nice animals there browns,ive been told that various individuals caught on calls in the town of atherton look from ordinary to great colour showing much variation,also heard that colorful individuals sometimes occur around lake barrine and other rainforrest surrounded crater lakes.Pity so much is cleared on the atherton tableland,its a big area up there and must show allot of color forms,patterns and sizes etc.  | | |
