    Talking My New Wandering

    I just picked this girl up last weekend at the San Antonio reptile expo. She was part of the James Bear collection (he was bit and killed by a canebrake so friends where selling his collection and giving the money to his kids, mostly venomous snakes). I saw her on the table surrounded by venomous and had to double take and stop for 5 seconds because she doesn't have a stripe and hardly any pattern. Well, I bought her. lol!

    These pictures are very accurate to her color and pattern on MY computer. She hardly has any top stripe or pattern and is a steel bluish color with blue skin. When you part the scales the skin is sky blue. So am I just blind and this is completely normal or is this even the least bit "unusual"?

    I know that wanderings vary greatly in pattern but I haven't seen one like this. Anyone else seen or have one similar?
    I have lots of new garters I will be posting pics of but I thought I would do this girl first.

    She is so cute and sweet. And she POUNDS fuzzies like there is no tomorrow!

    Well, her skin is blue. So when it stretches the steel greyish color gives off a blue cast.
    She has 0 top stripe from the neck, down.

    She's gorgeous! I love her Really, she's the first snake that I have really ooooohed and aaaahed over. I've been drawn to the blue varieties up to this point, but I really, really, really, like her color and pattern(or lack there of). Very pretty!

    btw, the blue cast doesn't show here either, but the grey is good enough for me! lol

    Oh. Because you know, it seems to me that, aside
    from being a little mentally ill, she's pretty normal.
