Other History:
I isolated this gene from a snake i bought from a friend in 2016, it was supposed to be a leopard but i was intrigued by the way all the combos looked very different from the “normal” leopards combos. After a few years of producing more and more different looking morphs I came up with the name the carnivore and began to release a few. the gene has gained a lot of support over the last 2 years but in the UK and the USA.
