Here's a pic of my female <html><i>Elaphe (Pseudelaphe) flavirufa flavirufa</i></html>.

These are really neat-looking little snakes. Their nocturnally-adapted eyes are extremely bizarre.

Thanks for looking!

LOL! Sorry, Vanan - I only have a small collection, so I'm afraid that you'll be subjected to the same animals over and over again, <html><i>ad nauseum</i></html>.
Seriously though, thanks for the kind words.

I have no plans for them until the '05 season. The male has been a particular pain to get switched onto thawed prey, but is now 100% on the beam, as is the female. The time and effort were well worth it, however, as they are really finally starting to put on some size. There's nothing quite like seeing a difficult feeder eventualy give in and take what you want it to take.

Cheers!
