I believe that as the "patternless" Super Raptors get older, after breeding, or are cooled, the Super Snow pattern will start showing. I think the spots are just so light they difficult to impossible to see. If they truely lacked the spots, then so would SS Eclipses, but I have never seen even one SS Eclipse with out spots.

All of these animals are really awesome though!

oh and your nova, you can completely tell that is an enigma and looks completely different than nathans mack raptors. even look at bryans mack raptor http://geckoforums.net/showthread.php?t=52884. there seems to be a lot of different looking mack raptors from bright to light, just like snows :)

If you could see it in person, you would say they looked very alike, thats all i'm saying... Nothing else to it... The orange blotches that are on the body of his Mack Raptor, are just like the orange blotches that are poppin up everywhere on my NOVA... That is an old pic, and they have really come up since that one...

And yeah, i know all about Bryan's Mack Raptor... I almost bought it, lol!

And thats what i was talking about in my other thread a little back asking why they looked so different.... Thats why i love Mack Raptors is because of the variety in them... It seems as though some have more of the Raptor influence to them, and some have more of the mack Snow influence to them. Each different from the next!

LOL! Yeah, i remember a while ago, you and i got into it then, too! lmao!

And as per that discussion, i'm eager to see what happens to my guy after breeding... i want to see if he gets some pattern to him after, cuz since then, i have done alot of reading up on them and have come to realize that this can happen, which i did not know before... (and see, due to these forums, and discussing differences in opinions like that, i have learned something! lol)

I have looked really closely to him, and can kind of see some very very faint and light patterning on the tail... I'm tryna see if this becomes more evident as he gets older and after breeding...

This is what i got a pair of, that's the one i like. Very nice btw, love the sharpness in the colors ans well as the defined contrast. Think it's time to start a thread on which mack raptor rules!!

Thanks! I like the partial stripe/"dorsal stripe" running down it's back with the spot at the bottom... looks like a Thermometer, lol... I should name her Mercury Rising, or Fehrenheit, or something like that... lol

...And i think i will do just that and post up a new thread where people can post pix of their Mack Raptors, and vote on which people like best!! (Just for fun, and to see the variety of Mack Raptors that people own!)
