I thought I would share with my herp brethren the really cool changes that are happening with these unique and somewhat rare sierra zonata multicincta. Just barely 2 months and two sheds later and the amount of melanin coming in is astounding. Looking forward to two clutches in 2012, but I must say between the 4.5 sex ratio and 5 out of the nine being anery I am completely stoked. What a year overall.





Here is a photo timeline for those that enjoy this kind of progression:

I sure am going to miss these aneries and hets once they are gone, which they are just a few weeks away from making their way to their new homes and are WELL-STARTED little buggers.



And now it's just about brumation time........wine cooler is fired up and zonata are almost all ready to go into the cool so papa can take a well-deserved rest until the new year.



Thanks for looking!!
