There were brought up the below post and I wanted to share some photos of mine.

Frank is 150% right that these are some of the most difficult snakes to photograph in regards to accurately capturing their colors. Of course being mean as hell doesnt help the situation much either.....



Here is my adult pair. The female is the one with darker color and the more pronounced pattern. I would consider my male to be T negative but he has dark eyes - same eyes as the female..





Here are three hatchlings produced this year - not by my pair though.













The color and contrast are very accurate - at least on my monitor.

I have a group of 2.2 babies - all nasty little monsters. My adults are very tolerant of handling. My male way more so than my female.

The last photo here is my female the day I got her.



Thanks for looking.
