Davis, black-belly Cal kings...

ratsnakehaven Oct 06, 2005 06:35 PM

I want to thank Rick Staub for sending me a super looking pair of Davis kings. I like these guys a lot and they certainly compliment my El Dorado kings very well.

When I left for work this morning it was 62*F, but when I arrived home at about 5 pm it was only 52*F. Fortunately, the kings were in the entranceway where it was warmer. And by 6 pm the temp outside was down in the 40's. That's n. Michigan for ya in October.

I thank Rick for taking the time to pack the box professionally and send the package overnight. They may have been a little chilly, but they survived the trip well, and are now warming nicely in my Guest Room for a few days. I really think it's worth it sending snakes overnight.

Rick, hope you don't mind me posting. I couldn't resist

I too got a pair (1.1) from Rick.

Nice snakes. I will eventually breed them with my Mendotas to see if they are the same recessive gene. I'm sure they are.

Thanks, Kerby. I think they are pretty cool by themselves, but I may breed mine eventually too, to another line. Good luck raising them up.

I also would like to prove my blue-eyed blondes, so I'll probably breed those in the future too. Probably wait til I'm in AZ to do that.
