Hi everyone,

Last week I was very busy so I had no time to visit the forum.
But her I am.
On the expo in Houten on october 14, 2007 I bought some new snakes. More than I had planned, but hey, who cares :)

Here they are...

Prices were per snake:

T. eques cuitzeonensis - € 130,--
T. fulvus - € 40,--
T. cyrtopsis ocellatus - € 40,--
T. melanogaster canescens - € 100,--

A lot of money, but I think they are worth it.

Not yet, but I will give it a try soon. I do not want to disturb them too much.

Anyone who has experience with T. fulvus?

beautiful snakes, Fons
the fulvus was already on my wish list
now the T.m.canescens and the T.e.cuitzeonensis - both of those are amazing

Indeed I visited Stevens tables for eques and melanogasterThe cyrtopsis came from Gijs & Sabine.The fulvus came from Germany.James, the juveniles of melanogaster canescens are all differently coloured. From one litter you get greenish and reddish animals. I am curious how they develope when they grow older.
