Looking for breeders
Looking for gopher snake breeders, preferably sonoran but I'm open to other varieties. I'm not looking to buy right now but probably before it gets too cold to ship, so I'm mostly just looking for some breeders to look into and talk with a bit before I buy. I've made the mistake of buying snakes from less than reputable breed with both of my previous snakes and I'm really trying not to do that again haha. Anyway if anyone knows of any good breeders or breeds gophers themselves I'd really appreciate some recommendations!

Re: Looking for breeders
I haven't bought, but I've spoken with them at expos and found them to be a breeder I'd buy from if I got another pituophis.
Breeder Gopher Your Pet. They do bulls and gophers (and probably pines) in more morphs than I've seen from anyone else. Probably worth checking out.

When I spoke with them, they sounded knowledgeable about a pretty wide variety of locales (I had been asking about bulls mainly since that's what I have) and have been doing it for quite a while. Everything on their table looked in good shape (which was quite a few animals, including yearlings and older snakes).
I'm not aware of anyone else who specializes, but a few other breeders at my local expos have a few. Not their main focus though (BPs or corn/king colubrids).

+1 for Gopher Your Pet. I also had a great experience chatting with them at an expo. I had a simple question about bullsnake localities and they enthusiastically delved deeper than I expected into explaining it and talking about how much they love bullsnakes, even though they knew I wasn't going to buy that day. Like pretends2bnormal, I decided that I'd want to get my future pituophis from them if I can. I have definitely seen them have pine snakes occasionally!

Oh cool, do you know if he has a website or any way to contact him other than fauna?
