Is that a WC animal? Very good looking snake. I've heard nothing but good things about them. They are one of the constants on my long and often changing wish list.

Those are smokin'! Locality?

These are 3 different siblings from generic parents. Some have pure black bellies. Some have white back grounds while others have orange like both parents. Annulata are robust hatchlings that are no trouble feeding on pinkies from the start. They are 30 "- 36" as adults and breed easily. I'm surprized they're not more popular with the milksnake gang.

They are my second fav next to coastals and I have to say they are a CLOSE second.

Annulata are without a doubt one of my favorites. As coach already said, I have no clue why they're not more popular. In my experience they are very calm, even as babies. No feeding issues, and even though they are small, they are very stout for their size.

I know I do! Nice ones, Coach! Keep me in mind during the new year for a pair or trio!
