My friend loaned me his Coolpix so I'm shooting my collection. I'm pretty good with film but I suck at digital so far, this being the very first time ever I've used a digital camera other than to shoot tourist families with their own cameras while hiking. Hope I did better for those tourists than I did here.

First up, calm Buddy, brother of not-so-calm Cujo, both five-ish feet of Texas coachwhip muscle. Originally from Sighthunter.

Next is Cujo, our own Mr. I-Could-Fit-Your-Head-In-My-Mouth.

Finally a shot of one of the new baby Glades Herp Texas pink hatchlings. They hatch tan and color up later. Best if they get some color enhancers while growing. One method is to shove a bit of cut chicken (the cheap stuff from the grocery store--the color-enhanced pink meat, not the healthy organic which usually lacks color enhancers) into a slit in the body of a defrosted food animal every so often. The snake swallows the chicken slice with its meal.
