    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Just got my Hypo het lucy & het albino in today. im really happy about this snake. Paid $1650 for the snake + shipping and worth every penny. Its a late 08 baby and its already 4ft and has a nasty temperment. cant wait to breed this sucker with some of my female burms.

I was trying to snap a pic of his sides there are some really cool colors in there and lots of gray. he is jumpy i just got him 20 min ago so when he calms down in a few days i will snap some better pics.

oh man Paul. Who did you buy that from??? Sorry, but that isn't a hypo burm. It looks very much like an indian python. There are some similarities between a hypo burm and an indian python, with the silver sides that have blotches with a light area in the middle, and the reduced to no black color, on them, but they are still very different. One thing you can often look at is the subocular scale right below the eye. The hypo burm will have that scale, while the indian python will have an upper labial scale that reaches all the way to the bottom of the eye. That isn't a for sure thing though as I know some people have been selling burm/indian crosses as hypos too, and those could have the subocular scale as well.

If you are ever going to buy a hypo burm again feel free to send me pics of the snake you are thinking of buying. I would be happy to tell you if it is a real hypo or not. I can also point you in the right direction on who you can get one from as well.
 
i dont have that snake anymore. after looking at it and looking at my friends hypo they were nothing alike so i got my money back. i had that snake for 2 days . im looking into a hypo from michael cole from ballroom pythons south.
 
I don't think that is an Indian. In addition to the sub-ocular scale pattern Ben mentioned, Indians also have a faded arrow head shape on the top of their head, which that one does not. It could still be a hybrid, but certainly not a pure Indian.
 
Oh man, don't even get me started on HEH....lol Your snake does look pretty similar to heh's pimbura stock. A lot more so than it looks like the hypo burms!
