Snake of the Day 02-26-17T

Show & Tell

Found this old picture of a RedFactor (aka: RF) Anery male we sold back in early 2014 (so he was a 2013 hatchling).  Wish I could recall who bought this so we could request a current picture of him.  I recall breeding a RF Snow to an Extreme Okeetee to get this snake, but now wish I’d held onto him (don’t we all say that too often?).  As I have stated several times in the past, RF usually causes not only an overall pink wash, but almost always turns otherwise black blotches to brown on males (the opposite of virtually all females that maintain their black markings).  This surely isn’t an impact from the RF mutation, since Aneries are largely gender dimorphic (males and females have a predominantly different phenotype). See pic 2 of this daily feature for a demonstration of the color distinction between adult Anery males and females.
