They are beautiful but one looks like a reduced pattern

Very nice reduced pattern on that female!

Has eddy calmed down?

I just got a bunch of "Thank You" notes from the 4th grade class that watched one of his half brothers hatch. They kept him as a pet so I hope he turns out to be a nice one. From the notes it sounds like he could be a great ambassador for snake kind (lots of them wrote about being afraid of snakes until they saw him hatch and then held him). I wasn't happy with the visibility on the Styrofoam incubator they used but I suppose a 10 gallon aquarium with a thermostatically controlled UTH might be fine for a display incubator at the very end and could double as a cage for the first school year or so. I'm expecting another clutch any day so maybe after running so late on some this year I'll have late school year clutches more often from now on.

Yup, Eddy has really calmed a lot. He is actually pleasant, and hasn't hissed in weeks.
I picked up a beautiful light colored female this last week. She had an RI, and is anorexic skinny, so I am trying to nurse her back to health. She is deep in shed now, so I will post some pics of her when she's done. She is light enough (colored), I am hoping for a patternless shed!

Ya gotta love helping educate the future herpers!

Nice snakes! I love seeing pics of normals, they always have those little variations in pattern that make them unique. I'll get a pic of my huge newly-acquired male on here this weekend..
