Well, things sometimes take longer than you expect, and this was one of them. Between trying to get the kids to bed, eating dinner and taking these pictures I wasn't able to get them up last night. But, here they are at long last.....and well worth the wait in my opinion. Enjoy.
From everything that I have gathered from reading up on BRB's, all the clutches are female heavy. It is speculated that this has to do with survival with one male breeding multiple females in the wild more so than colubrids.
one of the things that threw me for a loop when looking into this was that everyone was selling males for more than the females...so that is what sparked the research to find out why.
Well Paul.......it was definitely worth the wait to see if she was ever going to do something. I think you got a helluva a deal with that pickup. Some interesting split-saddles, very female heavy a nice sized first time clutch.
I think #13 steals the show...in my opinion. She is by far the "black sheep" of that clutch. Excellent pics and congrats again to you and Marlene. I am sure you guys are pretty excited.

Thanks everyone. Actually, the way that you price these animals is accornding the coloration and the side pattern. the better formed the crescents are the more the snake is worth. These guys as normals start out at about 175 and can range up to 350.
