I'll be picking up 2 new snakes at the airport today around 4:00, from Rich Z.

I'll post photos of them later.

I can totally feel your excitement! Nothing better than getting new snakes! Why do you have to go to the airport? I have had them delivered right to my front door from Rich. Either way, I am sure you will be real happy, as I have been more than satisfied with the snakes I have gotten from him. In fact, most of my corns are from him. I try to diversify every once in a while but when it comes down to it, his snakes are some of the best out there (also Kathy & Don) and I always feel like I got the 'pick of the litter' with him. I guess I am a little impartial since I made out like a bandit when he had that great sale on his corns a few months back.

I wish there were more sales/deals on snakes sometimes. I see the same deals over and over AND over AND over again and again and again in the classified sections on this site. If some of the sellers wanted to move their stock, they should consider lowering their prices after a certain amount of time. IMHO, I would tend to think its more of a pride issue with some, and maybe others have their margin of profit they try to maintain. Either way I can't wait till eggs start hatching and more is out on the market (not that I have room right now..lol). Sorry for the my thinking out loud...lol

WELL GOOD LUCK AND I AM SURE I SPEAK FOR EVERYONE WHEN WE SAY WE CAN'T WAIT FOR THE PICS!

Wow, they are really nice! I wish you luck with them. I assume you have them paired up for what they will potentially produce.

Nice buy!

Yep, I got them so I could hopefully make some caramels and ambers, though the percentages for getting them are kind of slim. I can still hope though.

Rich is having shipping problems and told me it would be a while before he could send them via FedEx, so he suggested going through Delta Dash, that's why I had to pick them up at the airport.

You will be happy to know that he can now legally ship on FedEx. And so can others if they follow the steps required. You will have to check his info for more details, or email me for the address (for any who don't have it)

Thanks!

The photos do nothing for them. The male is a little brighter than the photo shows and the female is MUCH prettier in person. The photo makes her too dark.
