O. porphyraceus laticinctus - hatchlings

Gidivandebelt Apr 04, 2009 09:21 AM

Hi,

Here are my last week hatched laticinctus, the first ate today, they all shed yesterday.

This one was very weird. You can see he/she is not comming from the egg, but from a rotten part that showed up 1 day after laying. Sadly he died a few hours afer sticking his head out, never have such thing before.

Best regards,
Gidi

Yes, that would be cool. But then again, we already have Honduran Miksnakes.

Well, I was only kidding about that, but with all the attention going to rare species like Bamboo Ratsnakes, people sometimes seem to forget how beautiful more common snakes like Honduran Milks actually are. I guess that's what I was trying to say here.

jyohe Apr 05, 2009 07:30 PM

wasn't sure...thoght you actually thought they looked like stupid hondos...

yea...I said stupid...sorry...LOL......they were cool then everyone and everyone plus bred the snot out of hondos(and all else) and the prices went to nuttin....I paid $200 for normal hondos back when and was happy as pink....now you can get screaming amel and hypos for 440...so wholesale they must be 20$???......just like corns and balls ...hondos went...brooksi......now retics are doing it.....next???....tokay geckos.....HA
