I am in awe of the pythons that are largely white (see pics below). Jag or Julatten or whatever, I just love the high white ones.
I see a lot of photos of young snakes that are very white, but I get the impression that they colour up into yellow or a greyish colour as they age. Is this true? I've also seen adults that have a striking white/black contrast. Is there a way to know whether a young snake will retain the white just by looking at it? Or do you need to see the parents?
I've attached some pics for reference; I got them off google but I think some are from this board so all copyright to the original posters, thank you for your input!
PS the last one is a bit pastel yellow/lemony... I really like this colour too, can someone experienced tell me if it's an adult or if it will continue to become a more vivid yellow?
