That T. ordinoides with the deep red dorsal stripe is awesome!!!!

Yes it is. Historically I've found many of them but statistically hard to find. Several people are looking to obtain them including myself. They have eluded me so far this season. Now if I could find several large adult female 3 stripers that have color, that would be ideal since about 50% of the females will be gravid until about july (the other half mated in fall and gave birth in early march) and they usually have a few young that look like the mother.

[QUOTE=ConcinnusMan;126929]Sounds like redspot, odie, and myself need to get together and go garter herping this season. For sure. We are so close to each other and the snakes in those photos.QUOTE]

Sounds good to me

I am seeking out ordioides with the red stripe EXACTLY like the picture you posted. I've found hundreds of snakes so far but no red stripers. GIMMIE!

Ask and you shall receive? I seriously hope I didn't take away an old (regular visitor) friend of yours but the comparison is uncanny, and it is the same place after all. There were dry leaves like that, it was a cool day, like the day you took that pic.

I don't get too fond of ordinoides very often but I don't want to give her up now! She's gravid, very tame and curious, comes to my hand (begging for food) and eats pinkies and night crawlers from my hand. She's a porker and very lovable. Here she is:


Hmmm...
