Heres some new pics of the male I got from Ric Blair a couple of months ago. He's one of the tamest snakes I've ever had and eats like a pig.

head close up

a couple more

Thanks for looking
Jeff

Nice looking snake Jeff! About time there was a new post. When I get mine I will throw some photos up.

Ya it can get a little slow around here. I'll be looking forward to your post.

Here are a couple from 07 me and my son found in tulare co.


They were both from the same rock pile and both had little crossover.

Later
Jeff

I would call that an outing to remember!

Nice Jeff!!! And lovin' the cincta pic as well. Your son must've loved finding them with you. I will be swinging out west this year to poke around the rocks for a few days. The critters have been in the cool for a month now and I miss 'em already.

Well, 'cept her...she is the nastiest z I've ever had. But precious due to her locality (Santa Ana) . . .

But I will miss:

the Martirs not eating until spring.....

my Bass Lake cincta female trying to play goanna and whipping me with her tail........

my high black and white cinctas chasing me like indigo snakes for their weekly servings . . . (sorry for the blur)

the Green Horn cinctas and their vanity -- as if Mr. DeMille was offering the close-up shot . . .

playing with lizards . . .

observing the curiosity of the parvs as they always seem to be the first out when i open the door . . .

and potentially adding new joys to the collection . . .
(possible hypo-e multicincta?)

BUT . . .

am kept alive throughout the long wintery hum-drum with the anticipation of . . .

more hypo-e agalma

more baby pulchra

more baby multicincta

and some other goodies as well, but bad ju-ju to count snakelings before they hatch (as an old sage would say in the milksnake forum).

Maybe a good sequel flick of some kind as well to round things out -- ahhh 2009. Happy New Year to all and the first round of hot wings are on me . . .

Awesome Jerry! He's a good herping partner. All of mine are chillin exept for the one so I'm starting to get bored.
I'll be getting a pair of Durangos from Shannon pretty soon so that should help.

Here are a couple of other herps found on that trip.

Look close at the blur to the left

The creek was full of these

I think they where wrastlin.

Jeff

WHO is a good herping partner? I'm sorry -- you lost me there. At this time of night it's not that hard to do. The Sierra-Nevadas are so vast. I may hit Coastal country to just look around a bit and take pictures.

Nothin in all these bags but pbj's and hand wipes.....lol......

Great post Jerry!

I've had aspirations of creating long-storied posts like Nathan and Dell does in the milk forum, but I need to get out into the field more in order to do so. But for now I will recycle old pics and try to take new ones as the babies mature and the adults proliferate. And then a website . . . . my name in lights . . . .make-up . . . . snakedome!!!! LOL....just kidding. The late-night hours get me punchy.
