Raven shed a few days ago, but we just haven't had any sun until today. I took her outside for a little update photo shoot, and I think her color has gotten more intense even since January, so I thought I'd update her thread. Her sides have pretty much diffused out, you can hardly see any side pattern anymore, and her belly is almost solid orange now especially towards the tail. I realized I didn't get any that were in focus of the underside of her neck, where we weren't sure if we saw belly checkers, so I'll need to get some of those still. And while she is not quite solid colored, her saddles and ground color are close enough that I am quite happy with how she has turned out. So if she gets more diffused/solid colored, that's awesome. If she doesn't, I'm still very pleased.
Picture 1 shows her overall color saturation.
Picture 2 shows her belly.
Picture 3 shows her head.
Pictures 4 and 5 are an attempt to show how faint her side pattern is. It's difficult with shiny snakes in the sunlight, so the last one is in the shade, sort of.
