Pretty amazing how such a subtle mutation can create such a wild super version.
Though, it is very very difficult to see the red pupil in real life. I couldn't see it, but maybe I'm just a little colorblind.
This one isn't a lucy, but one of my favorites nonetheless...a Killer Bee Spider:
UNREAL!!! See, this is why I need to make a LOT of money. Everything I like is very expensive...and it never ends. 
elevatethis, I've know Kevin (owner of NERD) for quite some time now, and I have to say that seeing the killer bees in person definitely gives you an appreciation of what a beautiful snake they are. I can see why they are one of your favorites...they are one of mine as well.

Kevin is the MAN!
What he has done with the spider gene in ball pythons, I believe, has really made the ball python market and hobby what it is today. I'm hoping to get a chance to meet him and Kara at Daytona this August.

Agreed...it's unreal what he has done for the hobby.
I actually bought the majority of my sand boas from Kara. She has very high quality specimens.
Have you read his book?

I consider The Complete Ball Python more or less the practical bible to ball python keeping. I've got signed copy 
The Barkers (VPI) released a ball python book as well, however, it dives VERY deep sometimes into the science of ball pythons to the point that its hard to find information without doing 30 mins of reading.
