In December, we profiled Jasper, a juvenile dark beauty with excellent side patterning. In January, we profiled Lancelot and Galahad, juvenile brothers with good color. Today, we complete the family set for that year with Carnelian. Carnelian is an August 2009 female who is full sister to Lancelot and Galahad, and half-sister to Jasper. She has a soft, almost golden color scheme. What really stands out about her, however, is her dorsal pattern, with its immense and regular spots that capture an enormous amount of highlight color -- far more than many Brazilians do. As of month end December, Carnelian had just crested 500 grams, and had reached a large enough girth to jump to small rats.
Here she is as of October 2010, at 14 months old, in a series of three photos chosen to show different lighting conditions:
Inside #1
Inside #2
Outside
For easy comparison, her brother’s profiles are here http://www.therainbowboa.co.uk/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=684 and http://www.therainbowboa.co.uk/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=670, and her half-sister’s profile is here http://www.therainbowboa.co.uk/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=616.
Thank you for looking, |

I agree Graeme, outdoor shots always seem to bring out the best in these snakes.
Dave, thank you -- congrats on the lifted limit, and what I suspect are the pending acquisitions. ;-) |

Gmac, I think that's the first time anyone has described one of my pets as "tasty".... ;-) I'll take a safe guess and say it's not the first one!
Ash, I think her brothers would be upset with me if I allowed that! |
