No mate she acually changed that colour before she came in contact with a male
Mate, hormonal blue is not a genetic trait - it's a result of hormonal changes associated with reproduction (only expressed in females) and it can not be passed onto progeny. Show me a blue adult male like that ..... and name your price.
It's a gorgeous GTP, a beautiful display animal.

Yeh I know that but if that female hasn't been bred yet then wouldn't that make it a blue? Yeh show me a male and I'll b fighting with you for it hahaha, I love blues.
He said it changed that colour before she came in contact with a male, wouldn't that make her a blue Michael?
Hormonal changes are not necessarily connected with actual mating, they are more related to sexual maturity. Woman start menstruating before sex too.
We know so little about colour changes in GTPs - what if it's a sign of readiness to mate? We see that in many other animals, sometimes it's demonstarted behaviouraly, sometimes by change in coloration in certain parts of the body or the whole body.
Hopefully ..... a new mom.

I am just learning about Green Tree Pythons so please excuse my question if it is a silly one....
Are these Juveniles mite/peppered phase or is this a phase of their ontogenic colour change?
thank-you in advance

This is GTP display at the Brisbane Museum, hmmm, could be done better.
and this a new GTP enclosure in preparation at the Barrier Reef Aquarium in Townsville. It's shaping up really nicely.

These are not from mite phase parents, although all the adults do contain some black scales on them. All of the animals are from new pairings, so I am unsure exactly how they are going to turn out at this stage!
