Thought I would start my own thread for my snakes like everyone else. :rolleyes:
Will post pics of everything soon. But thought I would start with what I picked up today at an expo!

No pics yet. Just got home from work. Today I picked up:
2.3 Baby Florida Blues
1.2 Adult Gold Peninsula Ribbons (both females gravid!)
1.1 Adult Bluestripe Ribbons (whoohoo! One of my grails)
1.0 Adult Trans Pecos Rat Snake
0.0.1 Texas Brown Snake
0.0.1 Ringneck Snake
0.0.1 Redstripe Ribbon
(Haven't gotten around to sexing these 3 yet. lol)
1.1 Albino Checkered Garters
The male is BANDED on one side. Very cool. Looks like a water snake.

All for $95... :cool:.

Thanks guys!!
I think the bluestripe ribbon might be gravid!! Oh yes!!! To me those are the hardest to find nowadays...

And yes. I should have a good group of redstripes soon!! :D Finally! In a few months. I have 3.0 now and will have the females soon.

All the new snakies ate yesterday! Accept the brown and ringneck. Which I am going to feed today.

Saw a ribbon at the river yesterday. I ran down the bank and grabbed at it. And I smelled musk and thought I felt him but as I am grabbing at the piles of thorny plants the darn little thing just completely vanished! :mad: Never even got a chance to tell what species it was... :rolleyes:

I guess I can up and tell now... I will in a couple months be getting:
1.1 Het Albino TX
1.2 '07 Western Blacknecks
0.1 '08 Red Eastern
1.0 Granite Checkered 50% Het Albino
0.1 Albino Checkered 66% Het Granite
2.0 Blue Pugets
0.2 Adult Female Redstripe Ribbons
1.1 50% Het Albino Redsided
and 1.1 Het Albino Easterns
All from Casey at TwistedMutations. :eek::eek::eek::eek:
