Well, no new house snakes were under my tree, so I had to be proactive. I have been looking for some striped house snakes, (Lamprophis lineatus). I have a striped L. Capensis but that is a genetic trait in the species, not the actual species known as the Striped House Snake.

They are tough to come by but a guy has some on Kingsnake including some sub adults over 2 feet in length! I have a 1.2 trio arriving on Thursday so I am really starting to build one of the better house snake colonies in the US now.

Here is a shot of one of my new beauties, when they actually get here I will post better shots,




Cool no? Since about the only way to get these at present time is via wild caught stock, hopefully these bigger guys won't be to bitey,

Anyway I can't wait till they get here,
