04 Outer Banks King

I've been wanting one of these for a long time. Purchased this awesome 04 male from Howie Sherman. He's Hatteras Island locality. Both parents are highly speckled. Even at this young age you can see a hint of speckling between the bands. I'm going to love watching this boy grow.

the best guy in the business, in my opinion. he has great stuff, seen it all, knows everyone and will talk to anybody at a show. class guy - and he gets out in the field- he's not a deli cup herpetologist.
nice sticticeps!

I agree, I met howie for the first time at the Expo when I picked up a couple of Easterns I had reserved from him. He was extremely nice and had simply beautiful animals for sale.

include the FestHaus patrons everyone in Daytona may already know of Howie.

He also had some NICE yellow thayeri on his table as well!!!

Yes he did. The fest house was great and Howie does have some nice thayeri. Actually the pair he has are the culmination of like ten years of selective breeding on my part. The other pair I sold to another breeder eventually went to the west coast. That was the better of the two pair! With what Howie is producing now I can only imagine what the others look like. Only hope the pair stayed together.

Met Howie before and he's a super guy. When I go to the Richmond or Virginia Beach show I'm not going to be able to leave his table without a few more things. No doubt I'm going to pick up one of his Okeetee Corns

Great looking OBK ! Howie has some of the best OBK's out there ! I agree with Dave Howie is a great breeder with topnotch animals and a helluva nice guy. The guy knows more about Easterns Kings than most people Ive talked to and I always value his opinion on kings or snakes in general.

Howie is a great guy. You should see his Desert Kings. Super Bright yellow & black. Also would like to pick up one of his Virginia locality Eastern Kings in the future.
