New Morphs?

Hey I found some of these things on Kingsnake and thought I'd get some discussion going as to the validity of these morphs.

Hypomelanistic Burmese Python

T+ albino Reticulated Python

Possible Leucistic Reticulated Python

No idea, they're not mine. They are in Malaysia and being sold at a huge price.

If theyre in malaysia that is more than likely its main cage. Have you seen how they keep their herps in arts of asia?

Thanks,
Ben

I don't doubt that's its main cage. There are some great keepers however in Southeast Asia. I have a supplier in Malaysia and he does really great things with his animals. I have learn quite a bit about keeping arboreal vipers and cobras from him. Anyone think these are what the guy claims or are they just random patter variations and not genetic at all?

Those snakes are very nice i would like to have a chance to work with them and produce alot more so we all have a chance to work with them what are the prices on them kevyn.

$18 000 USD for the hypo burm
$20 000 USD for the T+ albino retic
$25 000 USD for the leucistic retic

Keep in mind none of these are confirmed, they are all listed as possibles. I'm amazed Bob Clark hasn't grabbed them yet. Makes you wonder if he knows something we don't. Well he knows alot we mere mortals don't.

$18 000 US that is very interesting enough to find out more about it shot me the link kevyn if you don't mind.

well that last pic is definately not a leucistic retic as leucisism is all white, i'd say it is just a high white albino, oh but that burm yummy!!!

I agree. Bob Clark has a picture of a very similar looking retic on his site, and he lists it as a new type of albino. His is nicer too. That burm is really interesting though. I'm not convinced of the T+ albino either.

The T+ albino looks quite similar to Bob Clarks blonde retics.
