Ok, not even close...lol. This is one of my male 349 breeders from 10 miles north of Dryden.

I did a double-take when I saw him. Reminded me a little of this guy.

too funny! gorgeous snake. Dryden is such a weird area. Lil roadside habitat then nothing.

Sometimes, it was hard to stay put on 349, especially when there was better habitat in Sanderson, but that 1-2 mile pocket of rolling hill habitat ten miles north of Dryden was the site of my very first wc alterna (in 1997), so every trip to Sanderson included at least two nights out there north of Dryden. The special part about that area (other than 3.1 alterna and 1.0 annulops-lol) was that most evenings there wasn’t another soul out there, except on the very few occasions I saw Fraser and Adams cruising the road, and the even fewer occasions when I was stopped by Cervantes-the Lone Ranger.

did you catch it? That orange is similar to the X-mas area, and very uncommon for Sanderson or any of the Central or Eastern areas. It must be a mutt. Just kidding, I know its legit.

That is one of my offspring from my first wc alterna (1997), a male blairs collected AOR at about 2:30am from 10 miles north of Dryden (by the name of Mr. Dryden, which has been in the collection of Jaren Martieau-a co-owner, for some time now), and a cb female (quite possibly F1) from Pat Cherryholmes (sp?), who claimed to be working with a group of wc 349's at the time I acquired the female.
