I've had this guy and his sister for a year now. I noticed some white on him roughly 6 weeks ago. I've watched him very closely since then to see if anything else would happen. A few e-mails to Andy and 1 shed later this is what I'm left with.

Pics Shortly after I first noticed.

I didn't notice the white right away because this guy is a complete douche bag. :smt074 :smt011
He will bite any chance he gets(on the face no less :smt022 :smt016 ) with no signs of mellowing out. I tend to give him more space than my other 'tics.

Looks pretty suspect to me :smt023 Great side shots of him! How big are the two snakes and how long before the calico trait started showing on some that have changed?

Very cool, can't wait to see pics of any more white that should show up.

The male is roughly 10 feet and the female is roughly 12-13 ft. I need to get an actual measurment on them sometime soon. The male just started showing signs of changing somewhere around 6-8 weeks ago. The female still looks normal and is in shed now. I'm kind of curious if any white will appear on her at all. I bought them both as double hets for calico and albino so I didn't expect to see any changes at all. The male is becoming a pleasant surprise to say the least. :D :rockerdude: The only catch is that he is far and away the biggest prick I own. :smt013
