Mosaic - A "Stone Washed" Argentine

Here's a little something different.
This little lady was born in 2003 from an otherwise normal litter of Argentines.
Both parents and all of her siblings are normal looking Argentines. She exhibits an extremely "Washed Out" look including white ventral scales.

I don't know what to call her other then - something special. We named her Mosaic.

If anyone has seen anything like her, I would love to hear about it.

Thanks,

You may want to talk to John and Amy Mack. They are the origin of all the argentine boa morphs, like the albino and black motley as well as albino motleys and some others they are working on.

Evan, I showed Mosaic to them at the Daytona Expo last year.
They had not seen anything like her before.

It was just a thought Mike. They are the only people who have really done much with the Argentines the past few years other than breeding them into Colombian morphs. It would nice to find that your animal was genetic and breed it into their black motleys for a kind of hypo-ish motley.

thay argentina boa looks sweet i wish i had one that looked like that

Mike, you ought to check with gus and see what he think. SWEET argie!

Mike that is a very pretty snake

I was just contacted by Reptiles Magazine.
They are going to feature Mosaic in the "Breeders Choice" section in the November issue. She'll be impossible to live with after that!

If shes going to be impossible to live with, I will take her

Here's a few more of her baby pictures:
I'll take some more current shots if anyone's interested.







Thanks,
