Spring photography HUGE DUW

[aSnakeLovinBabe]

I am LOVING the weather, and I could not resist spending my day off photographing a BUNCH of my young garters. Also included are my albino dekay's, my gravid erythristic water snake, and a mud snake!

And now for a bunch of garter snakes, most of which are yearlings now and some of which will possibly produce offspring next season:

The wild-caught flame eastern, she's blossoming into a REALLY nice snake. A beautiful new bloodline of flame this will surely make.

My male carteret country erythristic het schuett albino, he is starting to really color up and so is the female (not pictured). When I recieved them in january they were both just brown.They both still have a long way to go colorwise, They are both going to be knockouts and I fully expect to see high quality albino reds from their pairing!







My male Similis, getting a nice blue to him!

Female wild caught red plains - bad pic


Male Eastern Blackneck - this pair should produce smokin' babies!

Female High Black oregon Red-Spotted, not a morph, but a selective breeding project of mine. that's right, I am seeking to breed the red out of Oregon Red-spots. I am aiming to produce an all black snake with a red head and green stripe. in my opinion, this look is SHARP.

Female Nebraska Amelanistic Plains- she's beginning to get a lot of orangish red on her sides... making for a very attractive snake!

This is a wild caught eastern I collected and decided to keep last year. She's really a striking shade of brick red, she looks like a maritime, but she is indeed, from a sirtalis-only range and is a true eastern.


My male California Red-sided, Mesa. This is the closest one can come to owning a san francisco garter without actually doing it! (which is illegal)

Very beautiful series of shots! The red spotted project sounds awesome. That red plains is a beaut as well. As to owning a San Fran, my 6yr old niece gave me this advice: just take some red nail polish to my red sided and she'll help me keep it a secret. If you find your snake room too full for the next round of young uns, send me a list...

perhaps the blue of the similis threw 'em off? With the Pugets, Similis, and the Florida Blues, let's just call em all smurf garters.
