This handsome male T.radix doesn't have a name. He's a Nebraska native and enjoys courting the ladies and night crawlers. He's been spreading the love around this Spring but needs a name.
Your job, should you choose to accept it is to name this fine male.
The winning name will be chosen this time by my youngest daughter Hailee(age 10).
One entry per person. Open to all forum members.

The prizes for this contest will be your choice of a Thamnophis poster or the book "The Snake Scientist"

Concinusman, you stole my idea! That's what I thought as soon as I saw the snake!:D But I'll use this instead.
"Capsaicin" (thats the ingredient in hot sauce responible for the "hot" tatse, and often assists in the red coloring).

I owe you an apology. I didn't see you had already entered "Yuri"
I see now why you were suggesting a name.
I've regained control of my brain:D for the moment.
I have you down for "Yuri"
Disregard all other correspondences in reference to this incident:D

Many thanks to all that entered. I'll come up with another contest soon. I have a few snakes without names.:D

She was given all names entered but not who entered them. I told her to pick her 3 favorites.
Then I had her crossout one. After that she had to make a decision. Pick one.
Just wanted everyone to know how it was done.
Many great names were entered.

Like Steve said, I'm sure he has a few more Radix that may need a name:rolleyes:

This thread could have done without this.
Every thread could and should do without that garbage!
Back to the contest, I feel flattered! Thanks Steve and Hailee! This is a really good idea!
And if Steve doesn't mind I think I will start one of my own shortly. I have never really gotten into naming my snakes and my wife and two boys always let me hear about it so I think I will try it out.......................Stay tuned!
Thanks again Steve and Hailee!!!!
