A friend was interested in buying a northern BTS, and found this for sale. I'm hesitant to believe it's a real morph for the low price. What do you think? is it an intergrade, or the real deal? It's certainly unique looking, that's for sure.

It definitely has blood from Indonesia in it. My guess would be T.s.scincoides x T.ssp.
6.10.9 T. s. intermedia
2.2.7 T. s. scincoides
1.2.1 T. nigrolutea
2.2.0 T. r. rugosa
1.2.3 T.g. keyensis
2.0.5 T.s. chimaera
0.0.0. T. occipitalis
0.0.0. T. multifasciata

I already told the guy it's an IJ. He refused to believe me and said he wasn't going to change it. IMO: a guy to avoid.
