Glad to hear your garden and snakes are doing well. My snakes are just getting ready to lay (most of them). I've had some successes and some disappointments this year in the snake room. We've had some crazy weather here in New England. Some days it feels like early spring then it turns around and get August sultry. I expect we'll be getting some field reports from the gang pretty soon. My only field sightings are a few garters and a snapping turtle. Pretty dull.

Best regards
John









>>i enjoyed visiting this forum last winter but have not visited for several months. Been very busy breeding all my colubrids and getting the garden planted. Nearly all my females are done laying and a few have even double clutched already and the garden is in.

>>Guess it is a good time for things to slow a bit (until the babies start hatching anyway). The native herps are starting to appear now so i hope to make some time for some field herping.

>>My son was out the other day and says he saw 2 Gloydius and the farmers have just finished filling their rice patties and the frogs are now singing me to sleep every night so I suspect it is a good time for me to get out there and burn some film.
>>I will post some pics soon.
