All this talk about thayeri......

Brad Alexander Nov 01, 2005 10:52 AM

I've always had a facination for thayeri, I've even had a few over the years here and there. But a good friend of mine got into them and sucked me right in with him over the last year or so. Now, I'm head over heals! I probably have too many now as it is, but I'm always on the lookout for more quality animals.

I'll show off most of what I've acquired so far below. Not only to say, "hey, look at my beauties". But to also pay respect to those I have purchased animals from. They have all been good sellers, of whom I greatly appreciate.

Excuse me while I finish cleaning the drool off my keyboard...OK.

Wow is right! Wow, Wow, Wow! Beautiful!
Just one question...how did you throw so many pictures into a single post? I thought 3 was the limit per post. You put enough in to make a screensaver!...How?
Cheers,
Danny Lee

Danny....
If you use a photo host other than kingsnake you can post multiple pics at once.....I use Photobucket from time to time to do this.......
I didn't mean to answer for you Brad....Just wanted Danny to know how you did it.....

Thanks for looking at them all.....John Lassiter

M O M.......Thats wow upside down and backwards. LOL Those are some great looking thayeri. I'm usually not a big fan of thin saddles but those are definately some of the best thin saddled thayeri I've laid eyes on. I like them better than your MSP's and I'm pretty partial to MSP's.

BTW welcome to the forum. You'll find it a little more "friendly" over here. LOL

Vichris Variables

All of them look great. If I had enough space in my snake room I would've kept them all Thanks for the awesome pics. I wish I could take credit but all I did was feed them, clean up their crap, and then stick them in the box together

Snakes are awesome!

Take care,
Russ

You selected the stock and the pairings. There's something to be said for having an eye for breeding nice looking snakes and you seem to have it.

RussBates Nov 01, 2005 02:26 PM

thanks for the compliment. I just love working with this type of king snake....they never get boring.

Hi Brad

Very nice! I like how you covered the bright orange to the lightest gray in the selection of your animals and "keeping it real" variable. Kudos to the guys that produced these also. I noticed that most of these are thin saddled animals. Is this a preferance of yours? Although each animal have a certain characteristic that sets it apart. I love it! I heared through the grapevine that these aren't all of it and there are more that havent been photographed. C'mon man, show us some more of the good stuff. hehe. Thanks for sharing and I bet maturity of these animals can't come soon ennough.

Yeah, I need to do the rest of them for sure. I have 7 or 8 more to photograph. Maybe I'll get to it sometime this week.

I do like the thin slit saddled animals, is that obvious?

Thanks a bunch,

Brad Alexander

Brad Alexander Nov 02, 2005 01:59 PM

Yeah, I really enjoy this species for all the reasons talked about here. I'll post some more later on this week (hopefuly).

Thanks again!

Brad
