Calico BHP in the UK

[johnuk]

Thanks for the post Zulu, i take it your colour change happens after a slough, i have seen colour change in many snake species at breeding time but nothing to match what i have witnessed with this BHP. Heres a few pics of her sister who has undergone no colour change

Nice john,was after a slough around breeding time it changed to the pink and white at first then gradually changed over the next six months to apricot and then up and down gradually after that. At the moment its in a lighter phase with black bands,they have the ability to gain and then lose the dark pigmentation .

John...you should try to locate Kasper Christiansen in Denmark. He also has a group of color changer BHPs that he wanted to part with. Super nice female changer.

Always nice to be able to work with a group of the bloodline. As long as you can hold them all back for 3 or 4 years to see who changes. It is really cool to watch them go through the change. I have a few a here in the US.

This boy is almost 20!

redwoodranger..... send your emails to me if you like for Den & Sharna. They had internet problems for a long time and now they've just had a new baby, but I thought they were back on track with their emails. Anyway, send to me at [email protected] and I'll make sure that they get them. I know Denver is always keen to chat genetics about BHP's
Cheers, Joy
