[adamanteus]

This is a wild caught snake? Really?

Wow what luck is that....first to find an albino T.s.sirtalis (I'm guessing that's what she is) and then to find a gravid one. Very cool! Yeh, like Rick (Cazador) said, looks like she's really to drop any day now. Congrats on the very cool find.:D

now shes in blue.whats the timeing of a pre birth shed??

Someone in another thread just had a girl go blue before the birth and then shed after the birth. Not sure if that is the norm...

[Thamnophis]

Often about ten days after the shed.

[mikm]

Yes, one of my Puget MaMa's was blue eyed the day before she gave birth. One day after giving birth she soaked in her water dish for about 30 minutes, then shed.

Nice 'MaMa to be' you have there :)

I was going to suggest that it happens about 3 weeks prior, but there's obviously a degree of variation.

[otis lee]

she shed today!!

[adamanteus]

Excellent! Did the old skin come away nicely, in one piece?

[otis lee]

always!
i have a funny story from to day.i just had a brother inlaw move in with us this fri.he has had fish but no reptiles.well as i sleep this morning he tapped me on the foot and said i think your snake is laying its eggs!it keeps poking its head out and is curled up in the hide!all i could do was go back to sleep.

[otis lee]

That was me. One time my female concinnus did that. ONE time.

Glad to hear she's doing well 3 years later! Sounds like it's high time you breed one of her sons back to her, if you haven't already done that.

You're very lucky to find her. The only WC albinos I have ever found were CA king snakes, Pacific chorus frogs, and CA slender salamanders.

[Eddie]

Glad to here she is still doing well! I have 2 of her daughters still and they are both gravid by a male that was born to one of them last year. My fingers are crossed that he turns out to be a het.
I will keep you posted

[Eddie]

I still have 6 of those 50% bluegrass 100% Schuett here at my house. 2 males and 4 females. I owe a pair to Jeff (let me know when you are ready for them lol). They are all starting to get some good size on them.
One of the het bluegrass females has gone off feed so it should not be long now! I sure hope the male turns out to be a het.
I will keep you posted

Yeah. I noticed that after I posted. I find it a little annoying when someone replies to a thread that old and makes it seem like a current discussion. But, that's not really anyone's fault but mine.

"The only WC albinos I have ever found were CA king snakes, Pacific chorus frogs, and CA slender salamanders."



pics?? lol

Well those were found in So. CA between 1983-1987 so don't hold your breath. The only herp pics I have from those days were taken with one of those instant poloroid cameras (high tech stuff) and the pics are buried in a box that I don't care to dig through. That's how we stored pics in the "old days" and they weren't called pics. They used to be called photo's and you never knew if the pictures turned out OK because you had to wait to develop the film unless you had a fancy schmancy instant camera! (still required film)

But hey, I was one of the lucky few. I owned a PC back that early. 8mhz, 256KB of ram, 16 color monitor and a 8MB hard drive. Top of the line.:p

[ConcinusMan]

...and a 8MB hard drive. Top of the line.:p

Ooops. Make that 80MB hard drive. Now I KNOW it was worth the $1500 price tag. I just pulled it out of the closet to fire it up. Still works.:D OK, waaaaayyy off topic.
