"Eye bands" on striped/cubed/motley

[Serpwidgets]

What I'm talking about is the band of "saddle color" that goes from one eye, across the nose, to the other eye.

What seems to be a theme here is that stripes have a thinned out band compared to others, including motleys and other non-striped clutchmates.

So now I'm curious: does anyone have striped corns that defy this "rule" (and please post pictures.)

I'm also curious: do "cubed" specimens have a thin or thick band? (Again, please post pics.)

:wavey:

Here's a cube followed by a regular motley...

Um, Joe, you can relax the grip a bit on that cube, his eyes are popping out!

I don't have a large sample group of stripes and motleys, and I have no cubes. But my stripes and motleys conform to your observations (i.e. very thin eye-band in stripes, normal eye-band in mots).

The little guy does look a bit alarmed, doesn't he? hehehe

Hi All - here are two pics I happened to have at work.

My stripe, Whisper has quite a thin band and Moya, my snow motley has a thicker one. With a diamond shape in the middle, but still thick.

Interesting observation! :cheers:

Serp, I'll be hatching out 2 more clutches of Stripes within the next 2-4 weeks. Would you like me to take head shots of each for comparison? I can actually do ALL of my animals young and adults (Mots & Stripes) now for you if it's helpful.

OMG, if you wouldn't have said it, I would have!! I was thinking the same exact thing! ROFLMAO!!!!

Here is the only cube I have and a head shot of a pin-striped anery mot. All of my motleys look like the anery mot's head pattern, I checked.

Heh, I was waiting for someone to post: "Joe, dude, you're supposed to pop the OTHER end." :grin01:

Anyway, thanks to everyone who has already put in comments, observations, and pics. And yeah, the more pics the merrier.

The snake is naturally bug eyed like that, I really wasn't holding it that tight.

YAY! The girl on the top left and the boy in the 2nd square under her that is milky are going to be MINE! It's neat to see more pics of them, can't wait till my babies are home :cheers:

I was a little sad I couldn't get in on this one, as I have my first stripes on their way in a few weeks. But there they are :crazy02:
