A couple of shots in the Sun today, enjoy :)

Skyler - E.c.x. (if you have a latin classification for the 'x', I'd love to hear it)






Tagz - E.c.alvarezi

It's possible. I'm sure E.c.maurus is the dominant gene if that's the case. A few people have suggested Guyana Rainbow, which is actually how I list her on my website, but I can't find a proper classification for that, and given the permanent pinstripe and mottling on her sides I can't call her a true maurus. I had a maurus for years and they don't even look like that when they lighten at night - their pattern is quite clean on their sides, hers is not.

I read an article where they supposedly bred a rainbow and a yellow anaconda..when they described it, it was refered to as Cerenchia x, E.C.x or hybrid...I didnt fully understand why they wouldnt mention or join the species names..but the pic of the snake showed more brb likenes. In any case both of your snakes are beautiful. I will see what else I can dig up.
