Yeah, to date i have found 1.2 of the orange glossy, 1.1 adults and 0.1 juvie that should go next year....the thing about them is that they are HIGHLY agressive, where as the normals that come from the same area are very very calm....no idea what causes it....psychos....I will have to take more pictures that actually protray the levle of orange in them its gorgious...

I like the longnose. Are they lizard only eaters or do they eat mice ?

I got my Brewster county pair on pinkies and fuzzies, one was a chore the other went right to 'em. They are pink instead of red.

They are lizard eaters by nature, but they are easily switched to rodents.

A very cool suboc and longnose, all my Rhinos have plain white bellies, and it has a real nice deep red to it as well, very busy! Nice molusses as well, man I want to be back there bad!
