My buddy Ryan Ferrell and I spent some time today trading hatchlings and admiring his Ltt collection. He has some of the nicest Ltt I have ever seen. And many of them are WC or F1's from Amherst Co VA.



We snapped some pictures of some of his stuff and mine so here we go.



First up is the one and only Old Yeller - a WC female that Ryan caught a couple years ago. She is really unique. We were so glad to get a clutch from her this year.















We bred Yeller to my male WC from Amherst Co (pictured below - caught by Ryan) and got some killer babies. Some have a yellow tint to them so we're hoping they turn yellow as they age.



My male - we call him Red Male







Some of the babies



This male was #2 pick of the clutch that Ryan traded to me. It does have a hint of yellow but the camera doesn't pick it up very well







This is a female Ryan traded to me. No real signs of yellow but a clean hatchling none the less.







Ryan's #1 pick from the Yeller x Red male clutch was in shed so we will take pictures later. But here is another one from the clutch











Next up is what I consider to be the nicest Ltt I have ever seen. And as a bonus, this is not a line bred animal, it was captive hatched by Ryan after catching a gravid female in Amherst county two years ago.



First up is the female that produced this animal - she was caught by Ryan but now is in my collection and we call her Red Female







And here is a male from her 2010 clutch - he is the best I have seen (Joecop this is the one I was telling you about). This male is in Ryan's collection and will be the sire to several clutches in the future.















And to show you how truely oustanding this male is, here he is with one of his siblings from the same clutch in 2010









And here is his sibling alone - not too shabby himself. Also in Ryan's collection.







Here is Yeller with this awesome male - they will be paired up in 2013. They are unrealated.











I also got a great clutch from the Red female x Red male. sorry I don't have any new pictures of these













Then Ryan has some really nice non locality line bred easterns.



Female











Male











Together













Here is that killer 2010 Amherst Male with the line bred eastern. He is even better in our opinion than this line bred eastern!!







We're looking forward to working with this locality to see what we can produce from some of these incredible animals. I hope you enjoyed.
