Greg's picture frenzy

Beautiful concinnus. But of course, they are all snakes and therefore beautiful. Very handsome adult rat snake too.

Also love the stack. Personally, I think it would look a bit better with more full spectrum lighting. Maybe 15 watt per stack. Seems kinda dark.

Thankyou .

Part of the lighting seeming dark is the lighting in the room and the camera at the time. Our living room has velux windows so we have plenty of natural light during the day. I have recently replaced the bulbs and do find the newer models a lot brighter (they have a clear finish rather than opaque), still at 11W.

Since it's called a picture frenzy, I don't want to steal your spotlight but I have to share. Found this beautiful Lampropeltis triangulum on craigslist. She was only asking $25 with housing and undertank heater but she's having a hard time financially so I'm giving her $50. Going to get her in just a few hours. In know, she's not a garter and will never replace my love for garters or concinnus, but still a beautiful addition to my household.

What kind of snake are Penelope and Seth? I love that orange.

They're Everglades ratsnakes (Elaphae obsoleta rossellini)

Interesting ... I think ... Xerxes, my adult male concinnus has been loosing his red colouration for a while now. At first it was just a gradual fade from red to orange but now it's taken a new turn . The past few sheds he has been loosing the orange colouration from his head ... in fact, it's almost completely gone .
This is really interesting when you factor in that the father was Hans' "green" concinnus.
Here are a couple of recent shots of Xerxes head.
