Been waiting to pick these up for a while. Just a quick intro pic of each in their temporary quarters. BTW- how do you get these guys to stay still for photos...lol. The third one is getting ready to shed. They all seem to just love rat hoppers and weans. Glad to be part of the crew.

To get mine to stay still, I have a set of plastic bowls with small arches cut in the sides. Three sizes, two of each bowl. I select a pair of bowls based on the size of the subject. Place upside-down where I want to take the pics with the slots aligned. direct the snake into the opening and close it off as it slithers in until the slots are totally out of alignment. Leave them like that for a few minutes. (I usually clean the cage while waiting) Then gently lift off the bowls and take poics quick!!!!! They will usually stay put for a few minutes.

I appreciate the complements. I got these from a good friend who decieded to cut back on his snakes. I know the first 2 are Sieb stock and not sure on the 3rd. It may be a Hummel or from someone in Fla. It looks much better in person than the pic shows. He bought 8 or 10 from several different top breeders a year and a half ago and these were the keepers from the mix. Couldn't pass 'em up.

That first one is awesome and that thing would look even better if I was taking the pics and it was staying over here They are all nice lookers and will produce some cool stuff especially that first one is a male. thanks for posting pics and it did take long enough
