Dream snakes have arrived! O. t. Ridleyi

Awesome looking snakes..congrats.

Please make some babies My O.t. friesi and O.t. callicyanous would love to have a O.t. Ridleyi next to them!

This is one of my favorite Old World species!!! I'm surprised yours are so tame, they are usually known for having quite the temper sometimes

thanks for all the nice comments! I'll try to get some new pics sometime in the next few weeks.

I got lucky, the original owner raised them from babies and worked a lot to get them docile. My dad was in town the other day, so I was showing these off and he reached out to grab the female about 4" behind the head... I quickly said "Dad, no, don't grab the head!!" but she didn't even flinch or fight it.

Of course, when in their enclosures, it's another story. It's like a torpedo coming out of that hide to grab the f/t mice! The incredible feeding response really shocked me. they are awesome

*wonders when apwiwl will get a nother pair and name that male "bobby"* i love going back and kist looking at them theyre soooo pretty!

Yeah, I'm late ... but better late than never, right?
Gorgeouse snakes, April! You did good
