    Ric's Garters

    Hi guys, sorry for not posting much lately, let's fix that.
    On May 21st, Brandy, my female T. radix high-red-x-amel het had over a dozen scrubs, mostly female, sired by Bluz, my high-red-x-blue T. radix. Most of the scrubs seem to show a brown/reddish tendency and some may color red, a few could go blue. Dad was black and yellow like a taxi as a scrub, and later he has turned out quite blue, with a pale lemon stripe.

    And then there is Fanta, one of the female scrubs: she has so much orange on her belly, that I expect her to turn very high-red, we shall see.

    They are all eating worms, fish and pinky bits and getting big. I cannot ship or receive any snakes until September, since the temperatures outside here (110º F) will remain dangerous for scrubs through August.

    Below: a mass of scrubs, looking for now like mom in color, a large female scrub, Bluz (dad), and Fanta, yup, that's a keeper.

    Thanks Steve, it feels good to be on.
    I still need to take more decent pictures.
    Bluz has reddish eyes, that didn't come off well (nor his yellow stripe) on that pict of him.
    Fanta doesn't stop moving, so I still don't have a picture of her back, LOL.

    Here's another scrub, this one has dad's wide stripe:
