Nah, you're no dummy. Any getula is a damn good snake. The first time I heard "locality holbrooki" I went "Huh?, you're screwin' with me, right?" Where I am from Louisiana, during that time, it was on the very high end of the trash snake spectrum - it was the best trash snake you could catch - and they where EVERYWHERE. A 5 snake day was the norm. I would ship them to Miami, and a wholesaler would give me a baby boa for every two holbrooki I would send him.
So today, I am an alterna guy, but I curious about which locality for holbrooki is the most prized? The ones from New Orleans area have a slight yellow to them, but you can also find regular white speckleds. The prettiest I've ever see are really bright orange speckleds from the Beaumont area. That Beaumont snake is also the largest holbrooki I've seen. So what is the most south-after locality?
