Continued from Part1
This is my favorite locale of coast animals. This population carries a gene that removes all ventral color (leaving a pure white venter) and makes the snout a gorgeous white-apricot. Stunning. This girl has eight follicles.

This girl underwent surgery three years ago from a retained egg, but has since done fine. Her follicles are to small to count right now.

This locality is phenomenal. Both of the photos below are my most anticipated pairings. The males are the uber-bright snakes. Their heads are almost fully white and their bellies are ghost white. They are bright orange with fading in each orange band. Spectacular!!! This first female has ten follicles and swelling fast!

This next pair is just as good. She has nine follicles.

This is a beautiful pair of San Mateo zonata. They are pretty much exactly what that county has to offer. They have a deeper red, wider black, and cleaner white than their southern Santa Cruz Co. counterparts. Also, their snouts nearly lack all color.

Part three will discuss GIFTING issues.
