OK. I have to keep this one

I've slightly amended my plans on getting out of snakes for a while. Instead, I've decided to holdback a handfull of this year's hatchlings to raise up for the next three years. This means I won't be breeding and selling for a while but that probably accounts for 90 percent of my time with the hobby it seems.

So one of my holdbacks was this very nice tangerine hypo that is het for anery and possibly het for albino. He is pictured with a clutchmate that is not a hypo. Nice to see the difference side by side. Also, the snakes from this clutch were freaking huge, as were all my clutches this year. Weights after their first shed were between 24 and 33 grams!

The photo was taken one day after their first shed, so they are about 10 days old in this picture. He also has a really nice tri-color hypo sibling that I will be selling because it's another male. Lots of males this year.

Nice animals, Rob! I'm glad to hear that you're still "in the game", so to speak!

Beautiful snakes. You see, you think you can leave and they just suck you back in. LOL Glad to see you still will be around.
