    Aren't those Aztec's expensive?

    Re: Hmmm Strange Observation

    Is it my imagination or does something seem a little off with the scales too? I mean, remember that radix that steve had with the extra laterals? Something looks odd besides the pattern on those snakes here.

    They're from Scott... pretty much a given.

    Sorry, had to say it.

    ??? Do explain.. as far as extra laterals. I know Scott has the Aztec but these babies are not from him.

    Re: Hmmm Strange Observation

    I was talking about a snake from one of Steve's litters that was born with extra row(s) of lateral scales. I haven't attempted to count the scales on those snakes pictured above and I like I said, it could just be an illusion but it seems like something is different with the scales, not just the pattern. Almost as if there are too many rows between the laterals and the dorsal.
