Green Tree Python (Morelia viridis) (Jayapura)
Captive bred and hatched August 2009
The locality, of which these beautiful gtp's names came from, is a town called Jayapura. Jayapura, also known as Djajapura lies in eastern Indonesia and is the capital of Irian Jaya (Papua). This beautiful chondro-rich region rests at the foot of the Cyclops Mountains on the northern coast of New Guinea. While Indonesians may know Jayapura for it's major trading port, we as chondro locality enthusiasts know it as a region that has yielded a very unique variation to the "mainland" chondro type. The parents of these beauties exhibit strong blue dorsal striping and have a very clean overall green tone as compared to many other mainland types. If you like blue, the Jayapura is for you! :) The Jaya's can exhibit both ontogenic colorations of yellow or red and these beauties offer a bit of a combination of both. The "flaming stripe" Jaya is a very unusual coloration in that they are primarily yellow with a bold stripe accented by red all the way down it. It's as if God himself took a little paintbrush and carefully highlighted the dorsal stripe. These are too beautiful and the pictures simply do not do them justice! These babies appear (from limited handling) to be quite docile and hammer their thawed pinkies with gusto!
As always when dealing with Frantz Herpetological you can expect a smooth and effortless transaction. Rest assured we will stand behind our animals, guarantee their health, lineage, AND that they feed.
Pick your beauty!
