Hey Dave...

Hey Dave,
Today as I was browsing your website looking at your collection I noticed that there are no recent pics of Genevieve. I was wondering how her colors have changed since those pictures and how she is doing now? If you would please be so kind when you get the chance to take updated pics of Genevieve that would be just awesome! Also, while im just asking for pics I might as well go ahead and ask for updated pics of Tawney and Thing as well. Anyway I know you probably have lots more important things to do so if you don't have the time I totally understand but I just figured I'd ask.

Hey Ike, like I have nothing better to do than...... JK

I have some newer pix of Thing, don't really like them though, just didn't capture him well....


I'll see what I can do re Genevieve and Tawney. I'm actually "working" from home today. I have a contractor texturing part of my ceiling. We're re-doing the downstairs hallway, already tore out all the old flooring and took the acoustic off the ceiling.

Hey thanks Dave. Although you seem to not like the pictures I thought they looked awesome! Thing is turning out to be a great looking snake, he's het for hypo right? He's gonna have some great babies one day.

Good luck with the remodeling, thats always a big project!

Anyway thanks for the pics and I look formward to seeing Tawney and Genevieve.

It's not that the pix don't look good, it's just he looks better in person, didn't capture the true essence of Thing. I'm too much of a perfectionist, I would much rather you could look at the poic and the snake and say, wow, looks just like it. Thing is a possible het for hypo and if the lateral stripe thing is genetic, then also pos het stripe. I'm really thinking the litter may have multiple fathers. There is WAY more variability then I see in a typical litter. My thinking is Eve may have had group sex post capture. The downside to that would be a lower percentage of actual hets. Any way you slice it, I still heva Genevieve and her mother so should be able to work it out.

LOL, that's just a tiny remodeling project, I already did the whole kitchen including making my own cabinets. THAT was a project. If all goes well, I might finish this weekend. Paint Saturday, install laminate flooring Sunday.
