Thanks for the help posting the picture - I'm still not sure how you did that, or what exactly I was doing wrong. Here's another attempt at another slightly different picture, just to see if I can make it work.

This is my first bairdi, and hopefully not the last. She's great in every way. She's about 3.5' and 180 grams. Is that about right for an '07? Her previous owner had her on one hopper every 10-14 days, and she seems to have proper proportions, so that's what I'm sticking with right now. She's a little darker than many I've seen pictured on the web, but that's cool with me. Very sweet disposition, and fairly active.

I think at her age and size I would go ahead and feed her one adult mouse a week. She should have no problem with that.
By the pictures I would say she is definitely healthy. Size varies from snake to snake so there isn't a set guidline as to size at a certain age or girth at a certain length.
The dark coloration makes the golds and bronzes "pop"
I think she is probably one of the best looking bairdis I have seen and I'm biased towards my own....lol

To paste the pictures from flickr, when you bring the picture up in flickr, right click the photo and then click on properties and copy the url there.
Then paste it here with the proper brackets. IMG [in brackets] at the begining and /IMG at the end [in brackets]

here is the url you posted
http://www.flickr.com/photos/zillim00/3272122457/

here is the url if you click on properties
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3399/3272122457_a6efa92149.jpg?v=0

and here is the photo using the brackets as I described

Jimmy, you da' man...heheh!

That's a gorgeous Baird's, albeit quite dark, but for a Texas Baird's, that's a keeper. I have a preference for the Mexican Baird's myself, but I'm hoping to see some Texas snakes in the wild this year..

Jimmy, how are the corn x Emory's rats doing? Remember that one you got from me...ever produce for you? I'm still working with a cross I got from Miami x Brazos Island rat. Still haven't decided if they are good stock for a creamsicle line, but maybe one of these days.

Best....Terry

That guy I got from you has done his job quite well.
The best looking cinnamons I've produced have come from him paired with one of my cinnamon females.
I love the meahlmorum influence.
here's a couple of the cinnamons and a good looking little rootbeer from pairings with the cinnamon

Jimmy, those cinnamons are nice. Hope I get those when I cross my hets.

That rootbeer is really cool looking too. The patternless head is quite distinctive and I like the body pattern/blotches a lot too.

Looks like it worked out great. Those are some neat looking animals and I would bet pretty hardy with their bloodlines. Thanks for showing them...

Terry...
