Northwest ringneck photo session:

Oxyrhopus Oct 21, 2005 03:04 PM

A well known reptile photographer, Michael Kern, was here 3 days taking photographs of my collection. Here is a photo I took with my cheapo camera of a Northwest ringneck snake. Michael will email me some very nice close-ups he took soon for me to post. He also photographed a regal eating a ribbon snake.

The Northwest was a bit nervous when it saw the regal but I was very surprised that they stood like this for 15 minutes. I think they liked the warm camera lights.

Taking a risk putting another snake with a regal though.

Is your regal skittish still? My adult used to be really tame, but I stopped holding her and she's pretty jumpy now.

...I only have one credible report of cannabalism w/ regalis, and based on many hours of observation; conclude is the rare exception rather than the rule. Even that Southern would not elicit an attack by 3 different regals; nor by 4 different sonoran-corales...???
Those Pacific & NW ringnecks can be outstandingly brilliant eh
Nice jpg BTW Mike...was wondering if youd ever post a decent photo!!!
