These wiggly little hatchlings have really tested my patience this year. Here's a few photos that turned out reasonably well (at least they're kind-of in focus).

All gorgeous Maria, but that fourth one down is a knockout!

Thanks, Greg.
That one is from my favorite clutch. I've been trying to breed for reduced-patterned animals with clean sides for awhile now.
How is your pyro project coming along?

I should be producing some Black Range, NM locality pyros and some knoblochi next season. The females have been slow growers, but have put on a good amount of size this summer. Next year I hope to be producing greeri, knobs, pyros and thayeri, so Im kinda glad I took this year off.

Sounds like you are addicted to the same snakes I am.....LOL
Add Ruthveni, Zonata, Mex Mex and Alterna to that and you got them all covered Greg.....
I wish we could all add Webbi to our collections......

Awesome stuff Maria. I really like that last one with the clean-sided floating key-holed blotches. Is that an animal from Dan V. white line specimen? Very cool.

Thanks, Jonel. The second to the last one is from a Dan V. female, but not the last. That last one is a sibling to the leopard-patterned one I posted earlier. I love the pale coloration on him...the yellow is so pale, it's nearly white
