Sunglow het Axanthic
This Sunglow het Axanthic is visually a standard Sunglow (Hypo + Albino) – an extremely bright, warm-toned animal with vivid yellow to orange coloration and minimal pattern contrast. In addition, this animal carries the Axanthic allele in heterozygous form. Het status is not visible and is determined through documented parentage.
Hypo is intermediately inherited from Coastal (M. s. mcdowelli), Albino is recessive from Darwin (M. s. variegata), Axanthic is recessive. This is a documented subspecies cross.
The hidden Axanthic allele is the key to producing Moonglow offspring (Hypo + Albino + Axanthic) – a triple combination where all three pigment-reducing mechanisms act simultaneously, approaching the visual extreme of pigment elimination. Moonglow = Hypo + Albino + Axanthic exclusively.
I couldn’t be happier with my experience working with Philip at StarPythons. From start to finish, the entire process was smooth, professional, and exceeded my expectations. Importing two carpet pythons from Europe might sound stressful, but Philip made it incredibly easy and kept me informed every step of the way. Both animals arrived safely, right on schedule, and in excellent condition. You can immediately tell they were well cared for, alert, healthy, and exactly as described. It’s clear that Philip takes pride in the quality of his animals and the service he provides. If you’re considering adding to your collection, especially through an import, I highly recommend StarPythons. This was a five-star experience all around, and I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Philip again.
