    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I don't browse here often, nor do I get the pleasure of updating the pictures of my collection, so I decided I'd go for both in one night...

A young female dark-phase spotted house snake, 'Cinder.'

A red phase spotted male, 'Rurik.'
SS12.jpg


My dark phase striped house snake, 'Mocha,' followed by 'Latte,' who I believe to be a form of hypo? I have yet to see another striped house snake like her. I'll be breeding her this year.

A lace-patterned spotted, who is more pink than red most of the time.

My albino cape male, 'October.'

A very fierce red cape female...

My awesome little bug-eyed house snake, 'Juno.'

I Wondering is Just Locality or Hypo Like You said... most of Lineatus are dark chocolate color.. and have White Striping...

Those two are milk chocolate with yellowish fainted Stripes... I'm getting Female soon so we see what will pop up from Breeding...

And One more time great collection...:thumbsup:
 
Aes, great looking Lineatus!

Yes, I suspect there is some kind of locality/hypo thing going on here. I have 3 male hatchlings I am raising up to breed with this female, too. Like you, I noticed most other Lineatus are typically dark brown or red with white/cream striping.

And yet, these yellow-striped guys are more common than I expected, too.
 
Gorgeous collection !!! My favorite is the albino cape, maybe b/c I have one, lol. I also love any of the red phase ones. : )
 
Beautiful house snakes! The red phase is my favorite. How are house snakes to handle, like how flighty are they? I am thinking of getting one. Are they like corns as far as handling?

Hey, Sara, I think you are the one I emailed about a female Dotted. I emailed you back a few days ago...but I think my emails may be going into your spam. I'm interested in the snake. Thanks!

This is a nice collection you have!
