Parietalis that I have met

[reptileparadise]

Yes...This one had to come!

None of my parietalis look the same...They all are special in their own way...So if one person can have so many variety in 4.3 thamnophis sirtalis parietalis...Then you guys must have way more cool parietalis patterns!

The first of many pictures!

Male.

http://koti.mbnet.fi/thamnoph/photos/chrono/parietalis2.jpg
Female. Sadly, I don't have any proper pictures of her and the true colours don't come out in this picture. Has little dark pigmentation below the lateral stripe and the amount of red pigmentation decreases the further back you go, so the markings change from pale orange/red to pink to white. The markings are practically completely white past the first third of her length, but they are pretty clearly defined and the exact same shape and relative size as on the male above, forming bars along the entire length of the body. The word intergrade came to mind once, but she probably isn't one. Not especially pretty, I guess. Dull colours.

She may not be very red, Stefan, but I wouldn't say she's not pretty. Her pattern looks very 'clean' and well defined. And she has a lovely head shape.

[Stefan-A]

Thanks. :D Here's a profile shot of that lovely head. ;)

I'm probably wrong, but isn't a grey head almost unique to parietalis, at least within the T. sirtalis group?

[adamanteus]

I have 2 parietalis babies, which so far have no red at all. I will try to get photos when we come out of the ice age.

[ssssnakeluvr]

My little parietalis with no red is coloring up nicely!

this is the pattern of a female born 2007.
I´ll try to cross her to my amelanistic males.

[zooplan]

Thanks. :D Here's a profile shot of that lovely head. ;)

I'm probably wrong, but a grey head isn't almost unique to parietalis.

Thank you for the tamplate,Stefan:D

[Stefan-A]

What the hell happened to your snake, Udo? :D

[reptileparadise]

It got spooked and ran into the glass! :)

A lot of verry pretty parietalis though!

[zooplan]

What the hell happened to your snake, Udo? :D
Something like this? = :o
maybe she´s a little shy.

Thing's yellow is more orangey, Whizzy's red is brighter

[Stefan-A]

Very nice ones, Rhea. :)

[drache]

I'd hoped that one of them was gravid and a few days ago I really thought so, but now I don't

I need to take more pictures , some of them have plumped right up like a ball park frank.

[crzy_kevo]

omg rhea
i love whizzy's red its just absolutely stunning

[infernalis]

Rhea that is some of the nicest red I have seen grace the scales of any garter yet.

[Garter_Gertie]

...some of them have plumped right up like a ball park frank.

I've never heard anyone but me use that phrase! Too funny!

[Garter_Gertie]

Rhea, is that your daughter? She's beautifl! Very pretty little girl. Nice to see her getting an early start.

[Lori P]

RHEA. You need to send Whizzy to ME. RIGHT NOW. LOL!! She's amazing. Well, they both are!!!

[anji1971]

Yep. I think we've all got "Whizzy Fever"!!:D
She really is an exceptionally attractive girl. Beautiful vibrant red!:cool:

[GartersRock]

WOW! Whizzy is the nicest parietalis I have seen yet!! You ever need to "get rid" of her, you can just send her right on over. ;)

[reptileparadise]

Wow...Whizzy is...wow...

[Gijs & Sabine]

Can I be the next one on the list who wants to have Whizzy ?? :D
I know Sjoerd has got a very nice group of parietalis, but Whizzy is also a very, very gorgeous girl :rolleyes: That red of hers is just stunning....

[Snake lover 3-25]

wow..... wow..... she is exceptional!!!!!!!!:eek: :D

[Lori P]

Rhea-- I think we are all wondering why you kept that girl hidden from us!!!! Oh... never mind... maybe because we're now all planning a night time raid at Rhea's... LOL!!

[drache]

thanks for the compliments
yep, Whizzy has quite the red
somehow I just hadn't gotten around to photoing them in a while . . .
there's a very nice boy too, who needs to have a little lump on his back looked at
photos of him to follow

[ssssnakeluvr]

here's a couple photos of some of my parietalis....

female het albino

male het albino, lots of red, but going into shed...

http://www.thamnophis.com/thamphotos/data//504/red_boy.jpg

[drache]

those are real nice, Don
isn't it interesting how on some parietalis the markings are so clean and well defined, whereas on some others they look like a little kid's clumsy colouring job

[Zephyr]

Wow, such marvelous snakes Rhea!
Absolutely wonderful. :D

[drache]

so little Slither went to the vet today to get his lump looked at
abscess - baytril injections, 10 days
you can sort of see the abscess in the photos, if you look closely - the bump on the back
he's also a pretty bright boy - the red more orangey than that of the girls and the dorsal stripe very pale

too bad he was scared of my big girls

[anji1971]

Oooohh, he is a handsome boy! Nice reds on him, as well.:)

[Garter_Gertie]

Jeez-Louse! What a STUNNING boy! Gods, he's gorgeous.

[Stefan-A]

Very nice indeed. :) I really need to get more parietalis. ;)

[ssssnakeluvr]

Very nice indeed. :) I really need to get more parietalis. ;)
Me too!!!!!! I am hoping my female het albinos are breeding size this winter....growing fast too!!!!
