The Trumbower myth involves a story of a young guy from Florida who went to Louisiana vacationing and low and behold cathes a clutch (!) of baby pinesnakes in a woodpile, all in one feld swoop... so much for dispersal. So the kid just happens to know where a well known Florida dealer is and sells or consigns them there, Then the animals are sold as ruthveni owing to their reputed origin and the rest is history. The picture you posted doesn't resemble any pure ruthveni I've ever seen, and that's many I assure you. Terry V. and Ginter jump on board! Tom J
