I've Got a New Baby! Introducing Skittles

[Custom Exotics]

You can make room for one teeny tiny worm, can't you?

It never stops at JUST one, its impossible for me, ends up being an addiction and another couple thousand in credit card debt, its really really not pretty, lol. I'll enjoy seeing you have you fun with the Colubrid though......from a distance!

Beautiful reverse stripe Albino Cali Great to see more Kings on the forum

That's a nice example of a classic albino coastal king. CalKings are cool snakes. Good choice.

Just out of interest. How did you come to the conclusion that it's a Coastal phase reverse stripe Albino Cali? Is it because of the high yellow or ?

I'm interested too - as I'm trying to learn what I can about them too! I think I'm in love with the albino banana king that I found when I googled Kinsnakes today!

Congrats on the new little worm. Those are great pics.

I'm hoping to get a little worm in the future myself, a sunglow motley corn for me though.

Unfortunately, I can't even consider corns, being from GA. But Geez Louise, I'm in love with this little noodle!

Should I be saying sorry for adding another addiction or congrats?

hehe, I love him! I remember seeing him thinking who can I get to buy this? Lets go show people Jessis and see if they like them Cant wait until they are all old enough to breed, I wonder how big the baby baby ones are if these are not already?

Yeah, you and your big mouth - "there's a really cool striped one over THERE!"

You will love him Robin, I love my BPs, but I really like my colubrids. They really are a fun snake to keep and handle.

Welcome to the less dark side!

Bruce

I'm really loving him - he even musked me today - and I went awwww, aren't you a cute little bugger!!!! LOL

Very nice lookin striper!!!!!



Let me know if you want a female for him!!!!!!!

I saw that little female you have!

When I bought him, I was like "he'll be my only colubrid", but now I find myself trying to find Kingsnake breeders (not easy to do with Google, btw, keep pulling up KS.com). Now I think I want to add an albino banana king and a Nuevo Leon Mountain King like the first one in this link: http://www.blackbeltreptiles.com/alterna/leonis.htm

Guess it's a good thing I listened to others and decided to name my business Robin's Nest Reptiles, rather than Robin's Nest Balls! LOL

Thanks Wes! Silly GA - you can't have native Kings, but you can have Cali Kings, but you can't have ANY corns - go figure. What makes him a coastal king? I'm still trying to learn the nuances between kings, milksnakes and corns - they all look so similar to me, although corns "seem" to have unique head patterns to me - but I can't tell the kings from the milksnakes - or are milksnakes considered kings? I have a lot to learn yet! Great - a new obsession!

He's a laid back little fellow, too...for a baby colubrid. Didn't seem to be particularly freaked out by all the handling. VERY cool little snake and I am looking forward to watching him grow up in Robin's excellent care!

He is very cool, isn't he? I'm not in love with him or anything!

He is a true beauty! I am glad to see you made it to the coolubrid side!

Congrats Robin!

Thanks Jason - I honestly was never really turned on by the colubrids before.

Cool little animal, I saw it at the show and looked at it more closely at the hotel .

Very cute!! I love the name!!

Thanks! Caitlin did great naming him!

I knew you would eventually , welcome to the wonderful world of colubrids

Love the little noodle!

Well, I knew I wanted to get one of your girls' babies in the future, I just never anticipated getting one this weekend! LOL

Here's a link to a site with Cali Kings, of many variations, in their natural habitat.

Another link this time to the whole Lampropeltis genus.

http://www.pitt.edu/~mcs2/herp/Lampropeltis.html

I'll find some other stuff tomorrow and try and explain what I have learnt over the past couple of years learning about the Lampropeltis genus, mostly the Getula complex though.

" Theses a cool striped one over THERE!!" hehe, aint cha glad I liked them so much I remembered him I already took all the rat food I couldnt take dissapoint you again! Did you look up the adults? The contrast is awesome!
