Description

Toffee Arctic Anaconda is a combination of the recessive toffeebelly mutation, the heterozygous incomplete dominant arctic mutation and the heterozygous incomplete dominant anaconda mutation. This combination retains the characteristic toffeebelly colouration, but usually displays it in a more intense form. The arctic mutation creates white rings around the saddles, visible eyebrow markings and darker borders at the rear of the saddles. The anaconda mutation reduces the dorsal pattern, resulting in a more open appearance. The belly is generally solid in colour. This combination can display different shades of gold, yellow, orange and light green tones.
