    New additions from Repticon ATL
    I used to breed those guys a few years back, sold them all but ever since I have really been missing my extreme hypos so I decided to correct that mistake this weekend by picking up a trio

    You should they are great, a little crazy as hatchling (if you never dealt with colubrids) but they grow out of it quicky, and you can't beet those bright colors.

    Gorgeous new additions Deb. I didn't get to the show but I've heard they had a much more diverse selection than normal.

    Thanks

    Usually colubrids are well represented, I have rarely seen some nice Hondos but for once I did and I had to snatch them up ;)

    This show is generally well balanced when it comes to various species.

    Man,,,,

    That's a sharp looking trio!

    I don't think people really understand the colubrids. A great many are diurnal, they are usually eating machines and quite active, though they may not have the mass like some of the boas and pythons, they certainly make up or it in other ways.

    When the question of "eye candy" pops up, I'd just link this post!

    Sensational colors right there!!

    Well they are much more forgiven to start with

    I have always kept mine at 74/75 on the cool end and 84/85 on the warm end.

    Enclosure wise I provide the same foot print, so in my case v70 tubs (41 quarts tubs)

    The are easy going, get up to 6 feet, they are pretty much garbage disposal, I used to feed the adults I had in the past whatever was in surplus that week it could be live or f/t, rat or mice and it never made a difference.

    The only thing is when they are very young they tend to musk but they grow out of it.

    Check our caresheet section there is one about bond is
