Growth update: Not much to say yet about this 2014 Bloodred Tessera from the pairing of two snakes (one being Tessera) from Rich Hume’s “white-sided Striped Granite”. I realize that snake has not been proven to have any new mutations, so it’s more accurately called an extreme Pied-sided Granite. With a wee bit of lateral white on this one, it’s at least safe to say that it’s a P/S Bloodred Tessera, but since the grandsire (the Granite with all-white lower laterals) didn’t hatch that way, no way to know how this one will mature? I’ll keep everyone posted.
Same snake in a different pose.
