Thanks for the links. Any new photos and new info
on such a rarely seen species is really cool.
I'm hoping to get a pair one of these days, as soon
as somebody has them available.

I have some that catch my eye more than any morph out there actually... funny always snatching up one particular Pender female and strolling about w/ her. I let you know how the 'addiction' goes!

Hey Chris,
I can relate. I found one male Moore Co. Rhombomaculata
in '07 and I'm hooked. Mark has helped with my addiction.
I picked up a pair of his Prince William Co., Va. Moles,
and love them. Check out this link to a pic of a wild caught
striped albino Calligaster. I wonder who's working with that bloodline? It never stops, just when you think you've got everything you'll ever want, something else comes along. Now I've started with Porphyraceus Ratsnakes from Asia. Somebody please! Make it stop!

Hey Phil,

First off that striped amel is beyond cool... what a package find! As for calligaster, admittedly I first fell for just a high red amel prairie from the old Orlando expo... years passed and I just picked up a small feisty female Sampson County, NC mole. The rest is a blur! Don't see it stopping either... so what about those Prince William County animals... let me know what happens there!

Mark,
I like the subdued pattern and grey ground color.
I know you probably posted it before, but what sex is it?
I can't wait for you to start producing those. Hey, and thanks for the info on that book I was looking for.

I was also clued into part of the T.O.S today.
I gues I was the reason the post about the Goini
was removed. I guess I can type out your page, but I'm not allowed to post a link. Sorry, I'm a little slow sometimes. LOL!!!
