Well thanks Billy...I appreciate that. That's a grand statement to make and to be honest, it kind of embarrases me cuz I've seen several here lately that I actually like better. But like they say, opinions are like _holes - everybody has one. Ok maybe that wasn't the best example, but you know what I mean. Here's a better one - beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Hahahhaa!

HA HA!!! You are so correct! Beauty is in the eye of the beholder! What some may consider so-so, others may be screaming about.

Seriously, great looking snakes, and yes, that splendy is my fave you showed. The color is just outstanding, and it looks very healthy and thriving. Great stuff, Deputy Getula!

All very nice Micah.....but the Splendida looks the best in my opinion.....There's just something that looks nice about a dark black and bright yellow snake.......

Looks like you have getula fever.......lol

Poor planning and procrastination on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part...

Well its true John, I do have getula fever...and for a long time now, there doesn't seem to be a cure for it, unfortunately. But I have some nice Thayeri in the works too....just for you! LOL! I'm not ONLY about getula you know.

Micah,
Excellent Pics!!!!! That splendida is awesome!!!! Where in the world did you see a better one??? Thanks for sharing!!!!

Pat

Thank you Pat. I have 2 fairly new clutches that all came out pretty darn bright like the one I posted. Bright for sure, but their pattern is kind of blurred. I don't deny I lucked out with these, but I recently spent some time drooling over some of John's. His have such a distinct contrast, with a crisp and clean pattern. Spledidas are just gorgeous snakes....no matter what! Thank you again.

Micah, how old is that splendids? It doesn't look like a juvie, yet most adults loose that crisp pattern as they grow. That's one of the best I've seen!

Hey Jorge. I produced two clutches of these guys - two different mothers, but same father. The females are what I would call "average", but the father....well, just look at the picture. He's been a screamer his whole life. At 4', he's kept his clean pattern and bright yellow into adulthood. There's no doubt where these babies get their looks from, and they ALL came out looking very similar to each other.

That is a smoker! Sorry, Rainer, lol.
