Is there anyone known for producing especially nice blizzards?

I did know some folks who bred some real beauties, but am unsure if they still do anymore. Do a "google" search and you will find MANY blizzard breeders!

I know I can find breeders of blizzards, I was just wondering if any breeders in particular were known for producing especially no blizzards. Kind of like how Lee Abbott and Kathy love are both known for producing some nice okeetees in particular.

"nice" blizzards, not "no" blizzards...typo

Meaning nice, pure white animals with no visible pattern at all?

I always aspired to retire before I expired. Now due to a premature retire, I am trying to reinspire to quazi-conspire to build an empire, but not perspire, as umpires in life use leptospires to make us vampires.

Yes I was very bored!

She is a beautiful wild-caught corn I captured in Brevard County Florida! She's very calm and easy-going, and a joy to own.

She was just a little yearling of 22 inches when captured, and has really grown since then. As a matter of fact, she had a large lump in her stomach from a very recent meal when I found her.

Glad you like her portrait!

That makes me feel better! Corns in your own back yeard. (Presuming you did not go out of your area to herp her).

So now also jealous of not being able to catch my own corns.

I could drive 150 miles to catch some fox snakes, which are very under rated as pets. but then have the ODNR on my arse. Well I could apply for the permits, I think I would be allowed 4?

Ohio law is if it lives here you have to have permits, even a red eared slider which never lived here but is a red eared slider.

I'm a retired cop, I just have 1 more thing to say.

Ohio laws SUCK.

Yeah!,...they're pretty rough up there!, Florida is WAY more lenient about animals!,.....not really sure if that's good or bad though!..LOL

However, I AM glad they protected the Florida Indigo many years ago. I also had several of those in my collection as a kid.

Some older kids came to my house back in about 1971, and wanted to sell me a GIGANTIC MONSTER(8-1/2 to 9ft) Indigo they caught. Those kids wanted a WHOPPING eight bucks for it!......Well, being only eleven years old at the time, my mom didn't think I deserved it right then(due to not so good grades in school),.....
..so I watched those two kids walk away with that huge noble beast off into the sunset!!!.....Wow!,..............those were truly different times my friend.

Oh!,....As much as I know this will hurt you to also hear, I did catch the beautiful cornsnake directly across the street from my house in the neighbors orange tree!,..........sorry about that!...LOL

Here's a pic of a very nice looking Yellow rat I caught in my own back yard a while back!

best regards, ~Doug

That everyone in Ohio would follow the law. As to release a herp on a permit you need permission for teh CHIEF of ODNR. I figure after 304 years his phone would be ringing off the hook.

Just to be very clear. I'm not against laws. I'm against blanket laws. Protect he fox snake, spotted turtle, box turtle, wandering garter etc etc.

But the northern brown dekay is protected? OK terrible pet, but protected.

We pay our gov't so much money I can not see a reason not to have comprehensive laws.

Oh yea, is it still illegal to have a pet mouse in Texas? Case in point!

I call for mandatory drug testing of all govt officals. And weekly lie detector test. And if your in 2 years as a senator your in the retirement system? BS

They are in SS. PERIOD. Then it will be fixed.

Ok, sorry for the rant, but I am noted for them.

Or you can try South Mountain. Don has a couple of nice ones pictured on his site.
Or any of the larger breeders.
You would think that any of the larger breeders, working with blizzards, would have used their better specimens as breeders so you should have a good chance of getting a quality blizzard through just about any of them.
