New mex mex pair - male

Aaron Aug 02, 2005 01:29 PM

I got a new pair of cb 2004 mex mex from Bob Applegate last weekend. The breeder was a friend of Bob's named Pat. Their parentage can be traced to a 1993 male from Gary Sipperly and a 1994 male from Rick(Trieny?) and Steve(Henderson?). They look like good old fashioned mex mex to me. The male is the darker one with more bands.
Didn't somebody else here have some mex mex from Bob Applegate? If you read this would you mind reposting the pics?

In 2004, I got a 1.1 pair of mex mex from Applegate at the IRBA show in San Diego. I still have the male, even though he's small for an '03, he's a great snake. Unfortunately, I let a herping friend keep the female mex mex and it passed away on him, we believe from him feeding in the cage on some substate that was swallowed and later caused her to die. GGGGRRRRR!
Great looking pair you picked up.
Here's an older pic of my male mex mex, that I need to update.
