My internet speed went back to a CRAWL yesterday. That sucked! So called my phone company and had a little talk. Now I'm back where I want to be and back to posting pictures a mile a minute again! Whoo hoo!

And just a few more shots...

Cool. I enjoy seeing the photos of your awesome collection. Isn't that first snake the amazing ghost stripe you hatched? I love that snake.

I don't breed stripes...thought I posted where this guy came from in the other thread I did on him? hmmm...anyhow, I'll repeat yet again. This little guy came from a breeder at Tinley, breeder name already forgotten by my advanced age related forgetfulness... Chuck aka Serpwidgets picked him up for me. I asked him if he'd be so nice to keep an eye out for me for a snake that was all stripe, no crossing over the back, and hypo. Well as luck would have it, he'd almost given up on finding what it was I wanted when he spotted this little guy. Doggone the breeders name is on the tip of my tongue....which does no good, cause I need to type it, not say it... Oh well, I'll remember eventually. I'm letting birdie bread thaw out... Well price was never an issue for me, as gosh, if you want quality, your going to have to pay for it. Whoah, that's ground shaking huh?

hee hee hee

Anyhow, John Meltzer happened by I assume, Chuck's table and was handed this little guy to take to Minnesota. I was attending a cousin's wedding in central Wisconsin that weekend of Tinley, thus why I couldn't attend. And picked up my new fellow at John's on my way back home. I recall my wife had to pick my jaw off the floor for me when I saw the little guy. Stunning to say the least! It will be fun watching him grow, and sadly he'll probably darken with age and not be so light and pretty. But for now I can stare.

ah, good, microwave has gone off, birdie bread is ready, and birds are awaiting...

Sorry, bad memory. Now the story's sounding familiar. Hey, at least I remembered the gorgeous snake.

**Russell** · 01-08-07, 05:19 PM

there ya go, at least you remembered the snake! LOL! BUT! you know how it is, there will always be someone who hasn't heard the story, and I'd have to repeat it anyhow. But then, sometimes I enjoy being...long winded...
