2010 Oregon Red Spotted Garters

[ConcinusMan]

I'd say these guys are ready. They've been eating a lot and have taken quite a few meals. I have a limited number of 3 striped babies (concinnus with lateral stripes) and plenty of typicals. These are all normals. No anery's.

They are pretty decent sized. Shipping would be $26 in most cases. At this point I'm just taking any reasonable offers (add shipping to figure your total cost) and we'll see how that goes. I would like to get at least $20 each if making offers for groups or couples.;) And of course, those can be shipped in one shipment. U.S. addresses only please.

C'mon guys, not a single response? No offers at all? These guys are gorgeous, eating like little pigs, growing like weeds, and some have had their first shed since birth or are about to shed.

I'm definitely open to trade offers. I am interested in acquiring many different species/morphs so PM me and tell me what you got to trade.

[ConcinusMan]

I might also ad that if you're paying cash I'll beat any prices of currently available snakes by other breeders by at least $1. Sorry guys. So anyway, right now I guess my offer is buy 3 or more and get them for $9 each plus shipping!(shipping is around $30) and like I said, I'm looking to acquire species I don't already have so try me. What do you got?

I have 3 stripe morph (polygenic trait)

And normal single striped babies. Even some that are a little in-between with interesting patterns on their laterals.

All are of the dark-headed variety. Some develop a nice blue throat as they mature. I have quite a nice little variety of them actually.

One of the single-stripe normal mothers. Since they are polymorphic, she had both single and 3 stripe babies - 20 of them!

3 stripe mothers, again, they had litters (12-14 babies) containing both varieties:

OK here's an update. I have sold all but a few males of the single stripe babies. The few I have left are small compared to my 3 stripe babies which by the way are thriving and growing. They are getting so big, so fast! Most just completed their 3rd shed already. They could easily exceed 26 inches by their 1st birthday and in just a few years, be around 3 feet long.

3 stripe or single stripe doesn't matter, they are dimorphic. Meaning both types will breed to produce both types. There has been some question from some of you as to whether the 3 stripe are actually pure concinnus. I assure you they are. It's just that the particular population they originated from (far from any other sirtalis') carry genes for both phenotypes. I assure you there is no way that any hybridization took place. It's just genetic quirk for the particular area around where the Willamette River meets the Columbia River.

The 3 stripe babies I have left are always willing to eat. Not picky, and growing fast! Most have doubled in size since their early August birth.

They are quite stunning and very cool personalities to boot. Very inquisitive and great fun to interact with. If I put my hand in the enclosure they investigate and climb up my arm.:D

I don't have very many females though. Still a just a few left.

I'm asking $15 each plus around $26 shipping. Please PM me if you're interested. I'm hoping to get these sold soon and only be left with my holdbacks.

OK, I finally decided to do some serious inventory and determine exactly what I have here. Minus a few holdbacks and other snakes on hold, I have 5.5 of the 3-stripe babies. Some individuals lateral stripes are just barely there or are otherwise not well-defined. These are gorgeous healthy snakes. Some have black undersides, some have very light yellow undersides. Once again I will mention that these are dimorphic. They will produce mostly single-stripe babies if you breed them and they are from 2 different litters.

I also have 2.1 of the dark single stripe babies left. Price negotiable.

Also available is one very pretty single-stripe young adult male about 21 inches(?) Price negotiable.

Right now I want to offer a package bulk deal right now. Take the 5.5 3-stripe babies for $125 shipped. Act fast. Offer may expire very soon.

PM me if interested. Nothing is set in stone. Just PM me with your offer or proposal.

Thanks for reading.:D

I've sold all but a few babies. I did however, hold onto a few single-stripe normals and I put sales on hold for a while just so I could enjoy them a little longer.

Since those seem to be so popular, and I'm not all that desperate to part with them, I'm holding firm at $30 each, or $50 a pair (unrelated) as the current price. Add $25 for shipping. These are 2010 CB T.s. concinnus born in early August. All are eating well on fish and pinky parts. PM me if interested.

Here's a current pic of one of the little beauties:

I also have a pair of yearling hypoerythristics. $10 each or $20 for the pair, plus $25 for shipping.

[ConcinusMan]

That's it for 2010 guys. All are sold.

I do have a couple of babies on hold and if anyone backs out I might have those available later but for now, I have no snakes left available. Thanks everyone.

[ConcinusMan]

As it turns out, time is up and I won't hold these two any longer and so they are now available.

One male:

One female:

http://img213.imageshack.us/img213/5193/lastbabies018large.jpg

All are eating daily rotating between chopped pinkies, night crawlers, and silversides. Growing fast and shedding frequently. Born in early August 2010.

I'm not going to mess around with quoting a price that is too high or too low and so, I'll leave that up to the market. In most cases, shipping will be around $30. PM me with offers if interested.

[ConcinusMan]

Another shot of the female. She's slightly smaller than the male.

These two ^^^ are still available. Here's another pic of the male with a business size envelope for size comparison:

I've also added another female to the available list. She is also a 2010 CB, born in late August and she is unrelated to the other two:
