Here's a pic of a female nelsoni I acquired from Gary Sipperly of "San Diego Reptile Breeders" many years ago.

Yes, We can all kick ourselves in the rear from time to time for letting go of some animals that were so main stream but now are far and few between.

Thanks on the hondo, I have 5 or 6 more incredible ones I havn't posted ever.

Ain't THAT the truth!........actually, this is a female that I never posted a shot of, and she was going to be paired up with this OTHER awesome male that you remember.

Yep, been there man been there.

I would have loved to have gotten babies from that pairing.

Thanks Nathan!,.....glad you can appreciate those fine examples!.....to alot of others, they would just look like another milksnake, but those two even had the textbook incomplete wide "notch" on the underside of the first black ring at the throat.

take care buddy!, ~Doug

Awesome snakes, Doug! I especially like the 2nd female you posted. What a beautiful textbook example.

I know how you feel after moving something and then regretting it. For some of my dumb moves, I've been lucky enough to get some of my stuff back. Years ago I sold this pair to Paul Weaver and was lucky enough to get them back from him several years ago.

Thanks Dave!,...............the second photo was actually of the male I had, I noticed my post wasn't worded quite right.

Those are some sweet looking animals you were able to get back. If you're going to be stupid, it also pays to be lucky!..LOL

You know what I meant!..LOL

best regards, ~Doug

I'll be the first to admit I was stupid!

Dave

Don't feel bad buddy,....I can honestly say that I would be totally embarrased to show you guys pics of all the snakes that I foolishly let go for one reason or another,.....REALLY!

Thus the term..."Live and Learn"!!!..LOL
