I want to know how you can say its of 'pure gosford' locality.
You see snakes passed off as various locales all the time with no proof.
It could be a diamond, integrade or coastal.
But, it's a very pretty snake.

Learn to read, it's a spade!maybe its a hypo diamond?
my way of thinking is: SR are basically the Australian Reptile Park so having a zoo licence their foundation breeder animals would have all been wild caught so they know exact locales. thats why I got my wheatbelts from there. i hope my way of thinking is right...I want to know how you can say its of 'pure gosford' locality.

I'm sick of people trying to question a very renowned, high quality breeder. Just suck it up. You're all jealous that they produce beautiful animals with pure localities without needing to intentionally label them incorrectly.
just thought id make it clear that my above post i was in no way questioning the snakes purity , i was merely offering an explanation to the doubters although as its been pointed out i was under the wrong impressiona few wild assumptions going on as i kinda expected , the animal does look to have some sort of intergrade thing going on , but to my knowledge isnt gosford still in the "intergrade zone" so to say although it is very close to diamond country ? ive never herped there so can only go off what ive been told , i thought the real pure diamonds (ie the ones with tiny rossetts and a nice black and white colour) started a little further south anyway
so so to me there doesnt seem to be any crossing going on here , just a pure locality animal as its been labelled that is a little different to the norm
i am curious though snake ranch how do you know/ get your hands on a pure locality carpet in nsw , im guessing that the lines been kept pure since they where originally wild caught years ago , or that you guys have been granted some sort of permit to catch them at some point , not having a dig just curious really
just thought id make it clear that my above post i was in no way questioning the snakes purity , i was merely offering an explanation to the doubters although as its been pointed out i was under the wrong impression
i was led to believe that gosford was sort of the cross over point so to say , kind of like how they say coffs is the other end of the intergrade zone and that most of what youd find there would be diamonds but that there was still the odd intergrade looking specimen floating about (please no stupid comments about how they must just know they cant cross the invisible line in the bush , its getting old )
just thought id make it clear though that i was i no way saying it where a cross or anything else cheers
thats it , the person who told me that was a family friend who comes from wollongong and he is a keen herper himself , so it was info i took on board as he has spent time there himself , whether its correct or not i cant be sureI wouldn`t feel too bad about making this mistake as there was a sponsor of this site selling "Gosford Diamond Intergrades" a while ago. I know a lot of the old timers on here get sick of the intergrade debate but is it any wonder it keeps coming up when its such a confusing subject that depends largely on opinion rather than scientific fact.
