Are these from your personal collection? I thought you were thinning things out a bit; nice to see that you are still keeping a real impressive collection. Your C. d. durissus is doing great; I'll shoot you off a pic sometime soon but he's a very popular snake with the public.

I did thin out a bit, just got rid of extra snakes that I had multiple pairs of, so I got rid of the younger ones. I kept one or two pairs of each for breeders.

P.S. I'll post some pics of the catenatus when i get a chance. I'm waiting on a new 80-200mm/f2.8 lens to arrive, so I don't have to get as close to snap pics....it makes me nervous shooting Bothrops from 12" away, thus many of my pics tend to be blurry or 'hurried'.
