Oh, I guess I misunderstood. I think the high red concinnus are awesome looking. I've never seen anything like that in the wild. Only "construction orange" color but some do have entirely orange heads and lots of orange on the sides, just not in my area. Still, some very beautiful concinnus to be found right here at home, in the creeks, rivers, swamps areas. I'm particularly fond of the very black individuals. Makes the orange stand out. High contrast. very nice. I'll get some soon. Probably in April or May, and I'll post pics and perhaps entertain offers for trade.

I would be interested in a couple more, increase my gene pool here!!

Still waiting for the dang weather to cooperate but if I get them in the first week or two of nice weather, nearly all large females are recently fertilized. I'm keeping you in mind Steve. I wouldn't mind having a high red phase radix. I'm hoping I'll be able to take the time to travel a bit south of my locale (make a day of it) to get some of the "prettier" concinnus available up here. I'm in the extreme north part of their range. They mostly tend to be quite dull compared to the one's just to our south.

Is there any type of cooling period before brumation? Or do you just stick them in the fridge? Bryan

"The fiidge" is set @ a warmer temp

I got a mini fridge, turned it to the warmest temp and put the pugets in it. They were in there for about two months, after which they hopefully made babies. They are due at the end of next month.

Which would be great since I'm expecting five more (3:2 i think females go first...) to show up at my door in the morning. So hopefully I'll be feeding seven adults and (crossing my fingers for) 13 babies (I know that's unrealistic to all the puget breeders out there) but here's to hoping

A positive attitude. Now that's the ticket
