so today i went out and got my christmas present! his name is Koda and he is a granit royal - looking like a normal but apparently its gonna grow out. they didnt know how old he is but there guessing about 4 - 5 months. can anyone give me an idea of how old you think he is when you look at the pics?? i went picture crazy so they may bore you abit lol
lifted the lid to take a few pics
when we got home, he had a little look around his viv. sorry most of them were blured but i didnt want to get to close incase i upset him 
like i said - loads of pics! i love him! merry christmas everyone!! |

That's a great price from a shop! The ones round by me are about £80 or something silly like that!
You see those two black dots he has in the brown sections along his sides? Those markings are called alien heads, for obvious reasons  granites don't have alien heads, instead they just have lots of speckly-ness. Your little one could have come from a clutch where he had granite siblings, perhaps the shop got mixed up. As long as you're happy with him then that's all that matters at the end of the day, he's a pretty little snakey and I love his name! |

I'd say it looks around 6 months old or older, its a nice chunky little thing :) I'm afraid they've mis-sold you a normal as a granite though, granites have lots of speckly black markings on their sides, check out some pics on Google. Nice little snake regardless of morph, I just hope the shop haven't charged you sky high prices as a normal from a shop should be about £70.
I did think he was a normal but I then thought maybe he would grow into it?? Im hoping thats not wishfull thinking. And my reptile store is really good for prices, got him for £65
Actually with saying that, have a close look at the 4th pic down. Even zoom in if you can. Because he's looking rather speckeled to me. just now he pushed right up against the glass and I was able to take a pic of one of his patches that is kinda speckeled, so ill post them tommorow. Can you tell me what you think then plz?? |
