Chestnut coloration in Northern Pines...

Hello,

I own an 8 month old female Northern Pine and her coloration is showing varying degrees of chestnut to almost pink.

Along her sides she is showing a lighter chestnut, almost a pink coloration and there is some darker chestnut along her dorsal scales. I saw it when I got it and with this last shed it has become more defined.

Is this a normal coloriation trait or??? I read on a caresheet that sometimes this color does come out as the snake gets older.

Would beinterested in hearing thoughts etc...

Thanks
Charles

Has your snake retained the colors of brown/black on its blotches and white/cream on its ground color?

Sounds very interesting!

Yep

She retained the normal colors except that further down her body she begins to show the darker chestnut red/brown and all along her body where her top scales meet her underbody there is a line that shows pinkish/light chestnut coloration.

Pictures coming soon...

Marwal, I checked and she is pure Northern...


Discern, I will post pics after her next shed as the only ones I have right now are not the best.
