Snow in August

A freshly shed clutch of Snows, Amels, Fires, and Avalanches.

However I realize that things can go wrong, and I have to keep a close eye on those groups, to be sure they are not being adversely affected by these living conditions. Also if one happens to eat it's cagemate, it is 100% my fault, and I know the risks in advance!

Thanks Doug, there are a few nice ones in there. The snows really hit big too. Only 4 Amels out of 17.

Are Fires and Avalanches the bloodred versions of amels and snows?

Nice group shot.

You got it Kent. Just names that have been given to the diffused Amel, and Snow. I was hoping for a female fire, but didn't get one. Wouldn't you know it. 17 babies, and the snake I wanted didn't produce. Oh well, I can use a female Avalanche.
