Cape Gopher pics

[JLC]

Hi all...

My love of ball pythons drew me over here from KS. However, while I don't actually own a bp, I do have an adorable little gopher. Here's a couple pics of him...

Admiring his reflection...


There's a couple more in my album:

I'm not sure. The pet store was woefully lacking in information. They couldn't even tell me where they'd aquired him...which was weird. What business doesn't keep track of its inventory and vendors??? But he's a great little snake. Based on his size when we purchased him last August, we're guessing he's an '02 hatchling.

He's gone off-feed these last few weeks and is driving me batty trying to get him to eat. I did get him to eat a couple of live mice-pinks a few days ago, but I really want him back on the f/t fuzzies he's used to.

That is one awsome colubrid, how big do the get and how much are they? I'll definitely consider one of these when I get back into colubrids.

They can get up to about 5 feet. They tend to be more slender than other Pitouphis. I paid $130 for mine at a local pet store. After asking around about breeder prices, that was pretty comparable, especially since I didn't have to pay shipping.
