Hey Thomas,
Nice looking Flav! I have a 2 year old pair but dont have any recent pictures. I will get some soon and post them.
My female has faded some over the last couple of years but the male has kept most of his redder color as he has aged.
I wonder if the males tend to hold there color better than the females as seems to be the case with a couple of other species of colubrids? Has anyone else noticed this with their flavirufa? Later, Randy Whittington

Tom, that's an awesome animal. I'll probably want to get those once we move to AZ. Thanks for the pic.
