Reverse Okeetee Pics Please!

[Dusty73085]

It may be a few years before I am able to get my first corn, but I am already drawn to the reverse okeetees slightly more than the rest.

During image searches, I find it fascinating seeing how different each individual morphs into such gorgeous adults. And I find it equally as interesting how different each individual looks from the other.

So, if you have them, I would love to see pictures of your reverse okeetees as youngins and again as adults. Being new to these creatures it will help me see what I could *possibly* expect a young snake to look like once it hits an adult age.

If your snake is still rather young, I would still love to see your snakes progression thus far.

Please post the (rough) age at which each image was taken.

Thank you so much!

She's still a youngster, but what this girl lacks in borders she makes up for in coloration. She is bright in person.

Thank you for sharing all of your gorgeous snakes everyone!

Kevin - Is she more red than orange? Very beautiful! How old is she?

She hatched last year, but I'm not sure when (I'd guess late summer though). I don't think I'd call her background coloration red, but it is a dark, vivid orange. Her brother's saddles are actually a darker red, but his background coloration isn't as bright or saturated. Here's a shot of the two together for comparison.

i would love to breed him to my little girl... she's a normal/wild- i'd like to see the product of the mix.

LoL well if you come to TX in a couple years he'll be ready! He's 19inches right now. He has almost identical markings to his father, that's why I picked him! I'm going to breed him to my Coral Snow when the time comes haha.

So I think that RO's are selectively bred amels...therefore breeding him to your normal girl would produce more normal/wild-type individuals.

 

[ashlee_kitten]

What would happen if I bred my RO and Coral Snow?

BTW you live down the highway from me hahaha

 

[CourtneyD0313]

Here's a high white Reverse Okeetee from baby to Adult.

After owning a high white, I gotta say, I prefer ROs with more background color.
