thanks Alicia :D

Erik... your not the only one on here with a thing for house snakes.... Mike loves em as well

yep, i know mike from a house snake forum, stunning housies - maculatus are on the "to get" list :P

Cool looking :yourock:..I didn't know there was that many different colors of them:rockon:

haha, there are a few more that i dont own... yet, my 2 T+ are also het anery, and most of my 08 hatchlings are subsequently 50% poss het anery.
will be interesting to see the hatchlings (eggs expected in a few weeks if the pairing took :rockon:)
theres also patternless which im thoroughly looking forward to seeing in T+ form (should be late 2010/early 2011)

the current Albino npatty are said to be hybrids between l. lineatus and l. capensis produced By Don Herring and Jason Paterson (no relation)
they also have a cracking Calico albino but at $10,000 crazy money!!!
Willy Ewart also has a very interesting animal that we believe to be a hypomelanistyic - only breeding will tell.
Donald Schulz (www.mfezi.com) has an albino L. fuliginosus, which i am lead to believe ios the only one in captivity :wamma:
another bloke whose name i forget had Zambian Green House Snakes, which he prove to be a dominant genetic locale colour mutation of L. capensis and cas Coined the phrase "ilumo" to describe them, they are bright green!!!!! and the T+ Form is expected to be produced this season also, exciting stuff!

I did not know there were so many varities! Love those eyes!

very nice house snakes i really like the albino

Freaking awesome! I love house snakes!

thanks all, every collection should have one - i believe Brian Barczyk breeds T+ and normals if anyone state-side is after any and Mike (www.shiningsnakes.com) aswell

Sweet collection

Thanks Liz, theres more but its 11PM and photobucket is too slow for me to try and find them all tonight :P haha

T+ Adult female:

incidentally, the T+ are straight from the KZN region of South africa, this means that they are genetically prone to growing larger and have gained a title as "giants"

right im off to bed after this but can't resist posting a link to a pic of an anery - don't that just make ya jaw drop?
http://www.creaturesandcritterscaptivebred.com/p_image_blue_lc.html

I'm gonna breed them someday. My largest female is only 58 grams, so she's got some growing to do before I can throw a male in with her.


...and I can't wait for the blue ones and green ones to make their way over here to the US!

(nor i ((to the uk of course :P)))
i reckon i may be able to get an anery pair in 09 sometime if i save the pennies and ask nicely haha
the greens are very exciting in my opinion, would love to incorporate that into anery etc, be very itnereasting!

Those are some smokin house snakes! Beautiful collection you have there and I love the little guy in the bottle cap. How do you house these guys?? I have a thing for the auroras but haven't seen them around much. Keep us posted on those beauties!!

Cheers,
Kat

the hatchlings are all in ventilated cricket tubs and the adults are in 50 litre Really useful boxes (www.reallyusefulboxes.com) they are: 27 inches long,m 17 inches deep and 10 inches tall which is ample room for them
the males are housed in 18x12 tubs, should be getting updaaded to 24x12 when i find tubs of that dimension haha

they eat tiny wee pinkies once their a bit bigger, small multi pinks if i can get them, but for the smaller ones, bits of rats, limbs tails etc
