they are both screaming crosses, one looks like it was crossed with bci and the other somekind of true redtail.
Actually they're unique looking snakes but, unfortunately IMO they're not being represented fairly.
I have personally had two Argentines in my collection at one time or another, and have also seen many more in person, and neither of the ones being sold seem to be Argentines.
Here's a pic of a female I had at one point........
And this particular snake had very well defined saddles for an argentine, but look at the difference in saddle color in the other snakes...not even close.
So, unless your looking to "get into" crosses I'd steer clear of that pair, but if your out to purchase unique looking snakes, these may be for you!!
Good luck,
Philip
I saw the ad. Those are not Argentines.
