Some recent acquisitions

waspinator421 Feb 11, 2010 03:03 AM

I picked up several Thayeri at the Daytona expo, and a few others near around that time. Here are pictures of some of the new guys and gals here. First one is male, the rest are females.

Aubrey -- some real nice snags! You have a great eye for beautiful snakes! The aberrants are spectacular, esp. the male. It looks like you're building up quite a nice colony of white thayeri, too. They all look great -- congratulations and good luck with them. --Tom

Thanks for the kind words, Tom. The one that looks kind of whitish is actually a green leonis... just hard to capture that green sometimes, lol.

Hi Aubrey,

Those are all very nice! The 6th pic reminds me of a striped ruthveni in a lot of ways. That paint-drip look is very becoming, regardless of ssp.

Thanks, Josh! Yeah, she does have a similar pattern to the Ruthven's, but comapared to the striped Ruthies I've seen, there are definitely some differences.

Aubrey,

Very nice. All hail the new queen of the aberrant MSPs. How old are those aberrants? How long will we have to wait to see what they produce? Props to you.

Thank you Craig. LOL, I don't know about the aberrant MSP queen... I've only got the three, unless you count Octavius. The two females are 2009 animals, so it will be a few years yet before they produce anything. From what I have been told, it is a reproducible trait.

Great looking snakes Aubrey....
I think I remember seeing about 4 of those in your bag at the Daytona show.....
Those last two are from Mitch Allen, correct?

Thanks John. Yup, you definitely saw a few of these in person. And yeah, the last two are from Mitch Allen. I had picked up a male from him as well, but he didn't make it.

Aubry,
Wow those are really looking good. Are they adults or young ones?

Thanks Russ! They are all babies and sub-adults.

Aubrey, Great snakes. Were you able to get any history on #6 and #7?.......Mike

waspinator421 Feb 16, 2010 05:40 AM

Thanks Mike! I was able to get a back story on them, and hope to dig up more if I can get some "very busy" guy to take the time to answer my questions.
