The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it. - Terry Pratchett

Thank you for the photo. The Emerald Tree Boa has always been my favourite reptile since I was quite young. I remember seeing (may have been San Diego? (I was all of four or five at the time)) baby ETBs with their beautiful lemon colour. Anyway, thanks for the image.
