1.2 were found near where yours are from while the other male came from a much more obscure locality. The latter was my first and the thrill is still there! What made it such an epic day is I had my then 10 year old w/me and we found a hatchling Oxybellis early in the morning and the Senticolis that same evening..along w/our first Coral Snake which was actually found crossing the road while the sun was still fairly high in the sky!



I herp on a Quad most often and I doubt I would have even seen the other pair of neonates from my truck..they were both absolutely motionless and barely on the road at all. The juvie pattern makes them hard to see on a dirt road!



Their growth rate is quite slow don't you think? It will be another 2 years at the rate they're going before I can consider trying to breed them.
