A little history up date on one red milk

Some of you may remember when I posted this little red milk back in 2009, he came out of a really rough neighborhood, as you can see.





His mother is a big rough and tumble het for hypo girl that has eaten her hypo mate in years past. Don't be fooled by the photo below the domestic abuse can be severe for the slightly smaller male.

The male looks to be in charge here, and moving on to some successful breeding which he did accomplish. But unfortunately, I have had to break up a few domestic disputes between these two before with the male nearly losing his life if she isn't in the mood.





Despite these home conditions, and being brought up in a bad neighborhood the little guy fought his way up from these humble beginnings to thrive and rise above his grave conditions. Here he is with a full belly.





And now as a two year old a robust het for hypo (slightly small) subadult L. t. syspila.





Keep an eye on those pairings this year and lets try and put an end to domestic violence in our snake tubs this breeding season.



Syspila Gorilla, a. k. a. the Black Widow.
