Does anyone on here know anything about South West Carpet Python (Morelia spilota imbricata) colour variations? I just saw one adult the other day that was really dark, even so dark that from her tail her belly scales were black and as they got closer to the head they were white/grey but with lots of black patterning. Her back was very dark too, making the pattern appear to be almost faded. I was just flipping out at how dark she was, never seen such a dark one before. The ones I see in the wild are usually much lighter with brighter patterns.
The python was similar to this, except that the belly scales were either black or with rich black patterning.
This is what I usually see in the wild.
I don't own any of these photos, just trying to show the colours.
