Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Anyone still into locality pits...
or is it all morphs these days?
If you have pure locality animals post them.
I am in the process of acquiring a pair of F1 Cochise Co. Arizona Sonoran Gophers.

Damn...
Nice stuff, Billy! Is the last pic a Stillwater? It seems to have more white scales than most Stillwaters I've seen. I like that. Maybe you could expand on that through selective breeding. I have a few Kanks from Phil Peak and just got some Indiana black bulls(Jasper county) from Daniel Parker. I will eventually try to get pics up. I've always been drawn more toward the darker northern bulls. I like the contrast. If I may, I would like to start a potentially interesting discussion. A good friend of mine, and science teacher to boot, and I had a discussion regarding the pallidness of southern bulls as opposed to the darker northerns. He avers that it has to do with temps in respected environments(cooler in the north, hotter in the south). I disagree! I think most animals are engineered to survive through camoflage. More pallid to match the more open sands of the southern regions of bulls and darker in the north to blend in with the leaflitter and shade from the trees. Harder to spot??? Have at it!

My two cents first?
Snakes, when it gets to a temp warmer than they "like", will seek shelter underground where it is cooler, yes? When would you see a bull "exploring" in Texas? I would think that you would have a better chance of catching one when the sands start cooling off a bit. Perhaps early in the morning or late in the day. Northerns would most likely take advantage of the warm daytime temps when the sun is struggling to get through the foliage where they wait in ambush for unsuspecting prey. I suspect that many of their prey items in the wild are in synch with the serpents schedule. Any thoughts?
