Well, as usual, the First show of my season was relatively uneventfull. A few gray rats, a couple of blues, a taiwan, one chinese(which had originally been marked as Taiwan), a couple of Emories(which were both marked as bairdi...what?), and a nice selection of adult Koreans, which for some reason I didn't get any...(kicking self good on that one) There's generally not much around yet this time of year, but odd-ball selection is generally better due to the importing season starting. Guess its been a slow start there too. Lots of ball pythons, bearded dragons, and columbian boas though.

On the plus side, I picked up an adult pair of Western coachwhips, one being very red(I know not rats, but I thought I'd share anyway) And...upon returning home, I was pleased to find my main female blue beauty had laid 14 wonderfull looking eggs! What a wonderfull way to end a herp filled, although uneventfull for ratsnakes, weekend. I've got some hopefully good pictures of my female with her clutch that I should be able to get up here in the next couple of days for you all to see.

Yea Conrad, I was at the show also. I saw a few odds and ends. Some Grey rats, a few Western Fox snakes, couple of Tiger rats. My goal was to get a Trans Peco Rat, and there were only two that I saw in the whole building. One at Ben Siegel's table, and Carolina specialty pets had one also. Both were the same price, about the same size and color/pattern. I ended up getting the female from Carolina specialty pets, someone else picked up the male from Ben Siegels table. Very awsome yearling female with some good size to her.

Yeah, I forgot all about them. I was talking to the guy that bought the other one. Nice looking little blonde, I'm more particular of the silvers myself. Congrats on the Suboc though, hope it goes good for you. Do you have any other Trans Pecos? I deal mostly with Asian rats and South American Odd-balls, but have been looking at Subocs and the like for a while, maybe this year will take me there.

This is my first Trans Peco. I've always wanted one and finally got around to making the purchase. I also have an everglades Rat and a Bairdi.
Two ratsnakes on my future list are an Eastern Foxsnake, and in the asian catagory, I really like the Russian ratsnakes.

Conrad I have seen you advertising on Fauna and was wondering if you know the person who advertises under Gracie and if anyone has had any problems with there snakes.I'm going to purchase some and was curious.Thanks.John

I'm not 100% on who that is, I'll look around. Shoot me an e-mail if you have any other questions about that.
