Egg laying has pretty much wrapped up for this year. 9 clutches in all, and anticipation is afoot. Now to fatten up everyone ebfore shut-down commences in the next couple months. Just have to love snakes out of a fresh shed, and I caught these two today looking mighty fine and ready to eat.



Santa Ana zonata pulchra (sired 8 good eggs laid last week)






Santa Cruz zonata multifasciata (sired 11 good eggs laid 4 weeks ago)





With all the feedings/cleanings there just hasnt been enough time to take any good photos, but hatch time will be a different story I hope. Looking forward to getting the adults into the cool MUCH earlier as of this year. With the heat wave here in the Northeast, the AC has been running non-stop to keep the snakes from overheating during the day while we're at work. As much as I love the summer heat, I can imagine the electric bill coming my way soon. Oyyy!!
