    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 will post more as they develop. I should continue to add a few projects every few days for the next few weeks. Thanks for following....
 
I found this pair of locale sp. Eastern Kings locked up this afternoon. I love the large clutches she throws. I think last season was 26 eggs, and maybe 24 the year before.

I went to split these up for a good feeding. I am hoping for great results from this pairing. (Amel Lgg) Female is het.

The ones that are on the bubble are: Apricot Pueblans, maybe one or two of the Eastern King locales, still unsure on a few others.
 
maybe i could make a habit of picking up projects you're done with. lol.

i love that female sinaloan i got from you a couple years back.
 
Hi Brian. I remember that Sinaloan. I hate she was 'more' than advertised. I had no idea that was hidden in there. I no longer work with them, partially due to that snake, and other things. I do not have the knowledge about that particular species that is obviously needed when working with them. I am glad it worked out for the better.
 
she's great. eats like a horse and calm as a hindu cow.

and she's meristically perfect. probably never would have found it out if the sire i paired with her didn't have the same gene set. now they make beautiful, low RBR, pin-band babies - of both varities :)
 
Woah GBK pair 2...what is with that super dark and red snake? That is seriously a GBK? Never seen one quite like that. I was completely convinced it wasn't a GBK when I first saw it, but then I looked more closely and saw some of the grey by the tail...so funky! I'd love some more pictures of that thing. Are you sure it is a pure GBK? Is it a specific locality?
 
Wow he is awesome, that picture is easier to tell that he is in fact a GBK! He looks like a pretty large male too.

Is he being paired with another sanderson? I'd be interested in a really dark colored baby of his! :)

You have some nice looking kings
 
Thanks, he is a beast. He is almost as large as some of my Easterns. Unfortunately I do not have a loc sp. female for him.I have had a chance at some, they were just not what I was looking for.
 
F2 NC Stock Eastern, had her pre-lay shed 2 days ago. (last year she had 26 if I remember correctly.

This Ruthveni should have her pre-lay shed soon.

I was told, by several reliable sources, that the validity and purity of the "so-called" albino/amelanistic Eastern is in question...that any of theses "so-called" albino/amelanistics are "mutts", crossed with the genes of a different albino Lampropeltis, either Cali or Florida. What do you guys say about this?
 
When I got my amel male, I sent an email to Kevin McCurley. from N.E.R.D. because all of my searches ended with his name. Here is the reply I got from him a few years ago.


from me to Kevin:

Hello, my name is Shane. I am trying to track down the history of one of my animals. Its my male albino king. I keep coming across N.E.R.D. but the trail stops there. Some people tell me there is no way to trace its line. Its been years, from what I can tell, that you worked with these animals. Any help, or direction you can send me in, is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.


From Kevin to me:

They are 100% the real deal...the ones from me....


the original came from Tennesee..Chatanooga in fact collected off of a river bank!
