    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....

This woma-lesser hatchling is our first combo-morph, produced from a nice light woma female and a good-looking lesser male. We're asking $1200 for him, no trades please. He's had 3 meals and is ready to go. He's feeding on mouse hoppers.

Shipping through shipyourreptiles.com--usually runs around $50.

Observing other hatchlings from this clutch, and from another sired by the same male, we have concluded that there is a chance this lesser-woma is actually a lesser-woma-granite with reduced markings in the windows.
It will take about a year to prove for certain, but we have a pure granite hatchling from a clutch by this hatchling's sire on a normal female, as well as more lesser-granites from both clutches. The sire has reduced window markings, so we did not notice the small granite markings until we saw the distinctive pure granite hatchling with all the markers.

You can see the small granite markings in the photo provided above.

So, if you purchase him, you have a chance that you get a bonus gene, and a triple combo morph.
 
Nice snake! So the small areas of darker scales are considered to be granite markings? How typical would it be to see these markers on animals that are for sure not genetic granites?
 
I haven't done much research on the Granite morph, as it is not one of the ones I was intentionally working with. My understanding is that these markings certainly do occur on animals that are not genetic granites. I would have dismissed it as that if not for the fact there were a mix of animals with these markings, and animals with ordinary markings, in the same two clutches sired by the same lesser male--and the one pure granite hatchling with every single one of the genetic granite marker traits, which is what tipped me off to look closer in the first place. Granite markings haven't turned up in any of my other clutches so far.

Those who do work with granites that I've showed photos to certainly seem to think there is a strong possibility that my male lesser carries that gene. Only proving out one of the granite-marked hatchlings will reveal this for certain, which is why the price tag isn't changing. The male lesser who sired these clutches has only a few of these markings himself--which is why I never suspected he was a granite. But he has mostly-clear windows, as do many of his offspring, so the granite markings are extremely sparse. I thought folks might like to know that those little freckles just might actually BE something after all. It's definitely worth checking out.
 
Here is the suspected lesser-granite from a different clutch sired by this male and a definite normal:

Here is the granite hatchling with all the markers, from the same clutch as the above Lesser:
