last of the Marino northerns
nothing new here...I have had this guy for around 7 years. probably one of the last northerns ever produced by Ed and sib to the one Matt J posted. also a photo of my merauke GTP that has almost completed her change. she should get a bit deeper green and the blue patches will intensify with age.

lots and lots of white too norm.

Here is a female I picked up from Eddie a couple years ago. I believe to be from same parents as your male Norm but a different litter. What I still call the deal of the century. The photo is washed out quite a bit with light so it is tough to really see but this girl has the coolest contrast around her markings. Really makes them pop. This is an older pic, she is pretty big now.

Here is another shot. She, unfortunately, isn't the nicest Northern which limits her posing time.

Thats a sweet northern Norm... I thought you were going to get smaller perches?? That one looks a tad bit thick.. Rob

That photo is a bit deceiving. he is just a little smaller than the branch in diameter. he does have smaller branches to choose from and uses from time to time.

Matt, she turned out great...do you have a male???? maybe let one of Phongs NL males take a shot at her!!!!!!

It might be just me then... I have favored branches with a diameter no bigger around than them and then increasingly smaller.... and I also leave the bark on.. they seem to grip it better.. Rob

Very nice specimens on this page! Thanks for sharing.

Yes, I noticed that they prefer the small perches. In all photos i´ve seen of wild animals they were resting in very small perches.

Anyways.. I didn't want to derail the thread... all awesome animals... love the meruke as well Norm... Find a mate yet? Rob

Rob I have had some offers on male meraukes. but better yet I am in the process of acquiring a virgin 6 1/2 yo female Basin. she's no textbook Basin, but I have never seen one I didnt like!

Good luck.... hope the stars allign for ya.... post pics when you get her... Rob

Nice snakes you guys, Matt looks like that female picked up some nice yellow. Someone was asking me about that a wile back if the bloodlines I was working with had some yellow in them. Norm, I think i produced 4 maybe 5 litters after the ones you got. Tony Nicoli was selling them for me for a couple years he just never told anyone I produced them. Ed M.

I have a half Marino male that Tony produced in 09. Tony bred it to a Suriname that had some nice yellow in the white. And have the only 08 animal Ed produced coming soon. Eli
