[The Snark]

What a load of cuteness! Can I have your old camera? :biggrin:

 

[wayne the pain]

Wow , great collection. Love the fire skink and hognose.:biggrin:

Geez, that ridleyi makes me wanna buy another. I had one for a very short period of time, but it died of a neck injury that the dealer completely downplayed before shipping it to me.

 

[the toe cutter]

Sure PM me your address, pay shipping and it is yours! You need one anyway so that you can post pics of all the awesome reptiles and inverts you find.

I agree, I kept ridleyi in the past too. Beautiful snakes!!

 

[Entomancer]

Holy crap!

I'm more impressed by the array of critters than the camera!

Are all of these yours, toecutter?

 

[the toe cutter]

Yeah I specialize in breeding African colubrids and those are all my little high strung rear-fanged buddies. I have some other Psammophiines and some other odds and ends they just refuse to sit still long enough to take pictures especially the Rhamphiophis, they are terrors to get clean, close pictures of. I am currently breeding all 3 species of Madagascan Hognoses, and will shortly have some more Telescopus, Psammophis, Platyceps and Rhamphiophis species to add to the collection. Also my favorite little Kenyan snake the Crotaphopeltis hotamboeia is in the middle of ecdysis so I couldn't any good shots until he sheds fully. More to come!

Great pictures!!!

LOVE the Tropidolaemus wagleri! Does yours eat geckos?

Also do you have or ever sell Rhamphiophis oxyrhynchus?

 

[the toe cutter]

Nope my Waglers eats F/T mice off of tongs with no issues. Waglers eat rodents, birds and lizards/geckos in the wild and I find offering food items every 15-24 days is all they need and you have to keep trying until they actually bite and hold on to the prey item before letting it go from the tongs. And yeah I have a pair of Rufous Beaked Snakes and will have for sale some more Rufous Beaked snakes as well as some Red-Spotted Beaked snakes, also possibly some Platyceps rhadorachis, Platyceps florulentus, Telescopus semiannulata, Telescopus dhara both the Arabian Red Phase and the Black color phase, and some Psammophis elegans if everything comes in.

Very nice I have never seen a Waglers in person but have heard others complain of their reluctance to take F/T anything. Of course I've had snake species in the past that were said to have the same issues that I never had a problem with. I've always thought they were gorgeous animals.

May I PM you in regards to the Beaked Snakes?
