Erythrogaster are one of my favorite Nerodia an we don't see them much on the forum! Where are those from? What do they look like in your area as adults?

I've got two WC pregnant female Redbellies that I'm waiting to drop babies. I'm planning on keeping the nicest few babies and releasing the rest along with their mothers. Do you keep any Nerodia as pets?

These little buggers are from Victoria, TX. There's a pond that runs through the apt complex where I live. It's full of these of these guys. In the 3 years that I've lived I've only seen one Diamondback, the rest have been erythrogaster.

The adults are more of less a uniform brown with only faint markings. There is some fairly large ones out there in the 5 ft range.

These are the only Nerodia that I keep at the moment. Mainly because I can't find any others ; )
