Thought you guys here might like to see this gal.

And I am praying its not just fat off spiders and that belly has some eggs in her.

Awesome little snake. I saw one of its cousins for sale a little while back in the classifieds but neglected to jump on it. By any chance do you have any head on photos of her? Thanks

Nice, She looks preety fat. I'll cross my fingers! Yesterday it was storming so went for a drive on a local road I go looking for snakes on and I found DOR Patchnose snake. Thats the only type of snake here in Vegas that I havent been able to get a hold of alive. She was beautiful! to bad I didnt have my cam.

I'll admit my ignorance here - what is it? (taxonimically) I've seen Gyalopian in the Western US but they didn't look like that. some kind of Ficimia?
Great snake, thanks for posting it.

Ficimia publia. They are actually a very common snake in southern Mexico. Unfortunately, I've only ever found them dead.

Very nice Dan. It eats spiders you say? Weird. You must have a heck of a time hunting food.
