Hmmm... at first glance, this one doesn't appear to be a similis to me. Looks more like a "florida blue" eastern. People tend to get the two confused. I wonder if the seller did that in this case.

That's definitely a true bluestripe! Some similis just have a lighter ground coloration than others. Also, Florida Blues wouldn't have well defined lateral stripes like that.
Picture 028.jpgSHAWN'S PICS 121.jpgSHAWN'S PICS 2 217.jpgHey Guys sorry i was on vacation last week. The guy who caught that second female swears they are pure similis he says that local is his favorite lacal and a little lighter and more difined than the darker similis, but it's hard for me to say without some type of dna testing i do know that it looks nothing like any of the fl blue easterns that i have ever kept and has the lateral stripes like the similis. If you seen this snake in person beside a fl blue eastern you would see the difference. Here is some pics for comparison. The first two pics are fl blue easterns.
Got home from work yesterday and she had 11 BIG babies! Two have tiny eyes though not sure what causes that maybe it's because she held them too long. Last year she had 15 healthy babies. I think some other people had some babies born this year with tiny eyes. Im glad i got 9 healthy babies and they look super sharp too.
