Looking For Love

Over the last couple of weeks I reported to the forum about finding, losing and finding again a nice wild red male T.radix. Tonight, one of my daughters (Molly) who isn't fond of snakes went down to the laundry room. Once there I heard her yell "snake". I knew I didn't have any on the loose so I figured it was a wild radix making its way into the basement. As I ran down the steps Molly was running up and said "it's on top of the dryer"
To my surprise sitting on the top of the dryer was a beautiful dark red female radix. I'm guessing the red male I have in quarantine is her mate and she was coming for a conjugal visit.:D
What a beauty. I don't think she's breeding age/size yet but she will be staying on at the Ranch.
I am a blessed man.

Better photos to come.

That is awesome! I have been keeping my eye open around here every time I go to the bow range or the lake, but I don't see them often. It's pretty cool she just found her way in and made herself at home lol! How was her temperament? friendly? She looks to be in really good shape either way!

She was fine until I checked on her in the tub she was in. Then it was crazy time.:D

Awesome! Put me down for baby reds in a year or two ;).
