2005 holdbacks

rainbowsrus Nov 21, 2005 04:55 PM

Just a few pics of some of my favorite holdbacks. All indoor pics, I wish I could capture the real colors and brightness.

My non crescent baby, She absolutely glows, almost luminescent

Her brother, even brighter colors. He is my brightest colored baby from 2005

Two others completely unrelated from the ones above but still similar bright glow in the dark coloring.

I'm sure jeff can back me up on how much fun and interesting it is to take care of all of the babies from several litters and how some just POP out as WOW,

Thanks,

Dave,
..Those are beautiful. The best thing about breeding these snakes is the variations between the individual snakes. Sometimes there will be one in a litter that looks nothing like it's siblings. There have been several years that I sold the best ones and regretted it later. This year most of the very best ones are staying here.

...but I can easily see how that could happen.

Aren't you glad you passed one along?

yes, I knew she was going to a good home, glad you like her. After I sell another dozen or two, time to start selling off some of my holdbacks. As much as I want to....can't keep em all!!
