2005 L.t.micropholis growing up fast!

I have 2.3 of these south american milksnakes that are growing very quickly and have much better dispositions than a female I had in the 1972 that could bite you 3 times before I could put her back in the cage and a very hard bite at that. I think Ed Miner got this snake from me and never was able to pair her up.

I like these because they get large - 6 ft. + and retain the tri-color pattern throughout their range. The andesiana from higher elevations that used to be grouped with micropholis even retain their tri-color pattern even though they are an altitudnal morph similar to gaegeae that turns black with age.

All are really cool animals but micropholis just have never been available to the private sector until now. :scatter:

Hey Bill,
Those little micros are looking great and I hope to produce several more like them this year. I have had two of the females drop eggs in the last week and the two other females are just now going into their pre-laying sheds.
Sorry for not getting back with you after your last e-mail. Life has been chaotic lately with 2 recent deaths in the family, the birth of a nephew and the building of our new home. Strange how God still lets me find the time to care for the 200 snakes or so at the house...
Hope you are well buddy and we'll talk with you soon.
