Ahhh finally he has arrived

NajaAnja Oct 26, 2007 10:53 AM

I bought this big boy over a month ago from a guy in FL who couldnt ship Delta. Soooo he finally made his way over to my buddy Mitch at Diamond Reptiles and after a few delays he has finally made his way up here. Male Mexican Westcoast Rattlesnake (Crotalus basiliscus). He is over 6ft and I would guess weighs about 15lbs. My adult female is right at 6ft and weighs around 10lbs so he was perfect for pairing up with her. I now have 2.2 C. basiliscus, the younger ones should be ready to breed at the end of next year. Im hoping these two breed for me now and drop babies in the spring. *fingers crossed*

Pics really dont do him justice, he just glows green.

I had to disturb them to snap a few pics he is the one at the top of the pic.

Those are great. I had a pair for sale and looked at them too long one day and said heck with that and kept them. One is green.
