I was talking to Rick Cunningham over a year ago and I mentioned blue beauties. After a couple more talks, the blue beauty tranforms into a ridleyi. HaHa. Ooh! I did get the blue. I got a male of each and will be looking for the females hopefully this year.

Nice ! Is it as unfriendly to handle as mine ? Mines bitten me about 50 times. When they're small no biggie.

I haven't handled him alot since he's still so thin. He eats every meal and gets longer, but he doesn't put on girth yet. He hasn't bite me, but I'm sure he wiil when he gets a chance.

Well, let's hope I can find some good homes for my baby blues so that I can get me a pair of those this year....along with a male for my female G. oxcephala, a female for my male G. janseni, a male T- or het for radiata, a couple of female corns, taiwans, Ptyas korros, Pantherophis vulpina, and maybe a third blue...but I'm not looking for much. lol

I need a male this and a female that. LOL. I'm looking for a pair of vulpina myself. How do you like your radiata? I know they're nippy, but that doesn't bother me in terms of not getting a pair. I think David Tracer's female has dropped her third clutch this year. They're eating breeding machines it sounds like. You definitely need a male for your female oxephala. Good luck Conrad and thanks for the comments.

I got my radiatas as hatchlings, I have T- and het for T- females. They were both jumpy and nippy at first, but the older they get, the calmer they seem to be getting. They will be old enough to breed by next season, but T-'s seem to be rather hard to come by. After dealing with the T-'s the T 's are just kinda bland looking to me. Thanks for the feedback.

point Gregg. LOL. Only our wives are counting. LOL. If you would stop telling me there's this or that on the classifieds or you talked to someone, I would stop being tempted to buy. Actually, thanks for the heads up when you see something available. My wife says a big "THANKS ALOT" HaHa.

wife is not liking me much now, lol. My wife just shakes her head anymore. She is hardly in the basement and therefore doesn't have any idea how many i actually have...which is a really good thing since i will have a lot more after this year. I think i'm in the process of picking up 23 this year so far... But i am selling several, so that might help a little, lol. We probably will be even here before too long, I'll keep sending snakes I see your way. But don't tell your wife that, lol. Have a good one Terry,

I got the itch to get blues about a year after the Taiwans. I inquired with several people for blues and almost all of them would say step up to the ridleyi. Well, I figured that I would steer towards getting the ridleyi after getting the blues. I picked up a male of each when I had the opportunity. Thanks for the comment David.
