Just a lil more salt for Bob, I heard his sodium levels were low

And a lil more Proof for Scott that BRB's rule!!

Been working towards this post for a while, getting pics of almost everyone in the collection,
only one holdout and I just can't wait any more. Each BRB has only one individual pic in this
post, there are some group shots at the end. I think all of these have been posted at one
time or another but NEVER all of these together!

Sorry some of these are a bit oversize....sue me!

Enjoy!

lots.lots.lots feeder mice and rats

I appreciate those pics a lot cuz I know that post took awhile to put together. Betty, Daisey, Hook, Tink, Phoenix, Tawney, Dottie, Mickey, Amber, M5 and I'm tired of typing NOT but really can't wait to see how Scarlett looks next year too and of course the BLOODY BRB (thanks for pinpointing Frank) Eve and everytime I look at her, I just like her even more. If my lawyer doesn't take all my money from me Dave then maybe I can get one or two this year but cross your fingers on that cuz them guys are GREEDY and expensive lol.
Bob

I have been working towards this post for quite some time and it did come from one of your replies a bout how cool it would be to see the whole collection at once. It really was a good idea and no, not sending you a "reward" Just seeing all ths=ese pics together should be enough of a reward!!

I really have worked so hard over the last several years to fill in and expand my collection. Some from intense babies I produced (I have to admit, I am extra proud of those) to searching out and purchasing outstanding individuals. My original BRB purchases had some just plain dumb luck involved. Porky and Lefty were bought before I had any idea what a really good looking BRB would be. Had no knowledge of Bullseyes, Eclipse phase, Blush etc. And between the two, I'm getting all three looks.

WOW!! That must have taken a while to put together. Those snakes are gorgeous animals, you are very lucky to have such a great collection. Those crecents on Tawney really pop, do all anerys look like Tawney? And that little Genevieve.... she is so amazing!

Thanks for sharing dave, that was fun!

Yes and no, took a long time to get good shots of all of them. Of course every time I set up a dedicated photo shoot, several will be in shed or just not as bright as they can be. And even the ones that look great might not be in the mood to sit there and let me take pics. Every subject sitting ends up with many pics to look through. Many pics thrown away, not in focus etc. The ending up with one or two for post processing, color balance, cropping, resizing etc. Then those pics had to be loaded up on my website. Oh yeah, for anyone wanting more, these and more pis are ALL on my collection page. Each time I put a pic up on the website, I copy/paste the URL into a spreadsheet along with KS posting tags so I can easily copy/paste them into threads.

No, not all anerys are created equal. Every other one I have seen has duller crescents, more yellow than Tawney has. She is a VERY stunning specimen, just hoping to make more like her AND work my bullseye line into the white anery line...WOW!!

At this point, my lil Genevieve is the brightest crown jewel of the collection. She's about to shed so prepare yourselves for another batch of pics of her!!

Dave,
Outstanding collection. I love the group shots (especially some of those in the post below). One of these days when I'm staying in Redwood City I'd like to come over and verify that you actually have these animals (and walk off with 'thing').
Thanks for sharing,
Paul

Hey Paul, sure come on down. You will have to submit to the blindfolded, stuffed in the trunk drive around town until you're dizzy and full pat down search afterwards. One can never have too many security measures.
