New pics of 05 female

KenCasstevens Feb 06, 2007 02:38 AM

This is one of my favorite snakes. This girl is from Mike Bodner, and has perfect little bat wings all the way down her body. Hopefully I can have her ready to breed next year.

Cool snake. I have a very similar '05 male from Mike Bodner. He's chilling out right now in my basement -- I'll try to post a picture soon . . .

KenCasstevens Feb 06, 2007 01:13 PM

I would love to see those pics. Mike always produces some awesome Thayeri.

I'll try to take some tonight and post them.

OK Ken, I "woke" him up for some pictures. As you can see, he has a lighter mustard-yellow background but he does have that bat-wing thing going on. He definitely shares more than a few genes with your female . . .

Definately! No doubt about it. The same blood is there. That's a fantastic looking male. I love the slight air-brushed looking head with the red eyes. What a stunner!

Thanks Adam. She's getting better looking every shed. She's also one of the best eating snakes I've got. You know that Japanese guy that wins all those hot dog eating contests? Well, she's the snake equivalent.

I'm starting to really look at those guys. I think the hypos are super cool looking.

Just like you tell me with the Pits, Once you get splendida you will love them, they were a snake that i had always wanted to get for their beauty, and i saw that Don Shores had some morphs that were amazing so, i struck up a deal/trade with him and got a few, they are from 05 and they are already on hoppers i hope to produce a few clutches next year. and the hypos are so nice. i have one female that has a great brown background with supper bright yellow speckling and a ton of it, once i get my camera dilema figuered out i will shoot you a few pics

looking good

RussBates Feb 06, 2007 07:56 PM

oh yeah wanted to let you know I'm not blowing you off....I just have not heard from Dick Bartlett yet. He runs a safari/expedition business so he may be out of pocket.

That's cool Russ. Take your time. I appreciate you checking on that for me. Thanks again.

I got an older breeder from Mike. She is one of Vivids F1 earthtoned animals and color wise she is a dead ringer for your 05. Wonder if she was the moma?

pikiemikie Feb 08, 2007 01:13 AM

the momma. Not that old though. Don't let her hear you say that Tony. I need to get a baby or two from you in the future from her. Can always use that wildcaught blood..........mike b.

Don't know why in the world you'd want anything from her Mike! She throws the ugliest slug imaginable. Just look at this one, it was all I could do to give it away! LOL

KenCasstevens Feb 09, 2007 02:59 PM

Awesome! I didn't realize she was Vivid line. What line did her dad come from Mike?
