Tom, they are not found in California so I'm not sure what h/she is alluding to but its not the ivory specs I know about. The post/comment was completely ridiculous. Anyone who knows squat about these ivory specs knows how rare they really are. Are they locally abundant where they are found? Perhaps, but I can tell you that their numbers are nothing like they used to be. The price being asked for them is probably fair considering how hard they are to find now. In my opinion, this locale is by far the most coveted of all of the various spec variants and for good reason - they are drop dead gorgeous.


Ridiculous? LOL...obviously you know everything about the species!! Whats ridiculous was the reply, AND the paltry and misleading information that was posted about them.

What, are you hoping the agencies will give credence to your misinformation and close the season on them so you can make those "fair prices"??? See I know how marketing works too! )))

...and just because YOU BOYS have not found a white speck in CA does not mean that they dont exist, perhaps I will post a picture of it once I remove the identifying features in the photo, I truly dont want a bunch of commercial buffoons trying to make a $ off of them...



Folks, those snakes are about as rare as a Corona beer on Cinco de Mayo...
