because of this they have a much greater variability in their appearance. So you can find areas where the westerns are quite different from any easterns. But you'll never find easterns that are completely different from any westerns. There are some small differences between easterns and westerns with respect to ranges of saddle counts and tail spots. But the overlap is very large. I work with westerns from Minnesota (John Meltzer's stock) that look a great deal different from easterns. My easterns are from Toledo OH (Bart Bruno's stock). But I have seen pictures of westerns that looked very similar to easterns. An yway they're both interesting snakes in my opinion.

I don't have a website. But I do have a photo gallery on Kingsnake (under jfirneno).

Regards
John
