My first Pictus hatched today Smiley.  They are small, about half the size of a baby crested.

yea,  I'm not sure which female they came from.  They lay so many eggs it's hard to keep up with who they come from Smiley.  I have another 1.3 group but they're still a little small for breeding.

They are fast Smiley.  I had some het xanthics last year but I had a problem taking the eggs out without crushing them so i sold the group. Roll Eyes  I cant seem to find the guy that bred them though, he usually posts them all the time on kingsnake.  Maybe he got out of reptiles Undecided

i may be able to point you in the direction of some if your interested in more. although when i got mine i had to give them a kidney in trade because they didnt want to come off of them. they also have a few other morphs too.
