Yeah well I could of went for this year. But I want to be on the save side than to be sorry....so I decided to wait for another year....besides...I already have my hands full...why bother and make more trouble and take and risk with breeding too small....LOL

Sigh~
I want to too~~
I wish that this year can pass fast cause next year I have tons of plans that I want to breed things with...
I have a lot of up coming projects that I want to get my hands on and start it~~

It would definitely be fun for next year~~

[~Suntiger~]

WOW, those are WAY too cool and I am WAY too jealous!!

[BoidKeeper]

Too cool Simon! Before I go saying "Put me down for a pair." I should at least find out how much they are?
Cheers,
Trevor

[Simon]

Trevor,

Well the current market value for these in the states are $650 each.
That is about $1000 CDN each. So that would be around my price too~

So I am assuming to put you down for a whole clutch?

[Scales Zoo]

Put me down for a pair!

Ryan

[BoidKeeper]

LOL, maybe not this year Simon. Remember the name after all. ha ha
Cheers,
Trevor

[Simon]

Ryan,

Sure~!
If I am able to produce these beauties next year I'll surely come and find you~~
they are truely awesome animals~

Trevor,
LOL...don't worry
I wont be producing any this year..its next year~
so I guess I should be putting your name down too~~ LOL

[Stav.T]

Gorgeous!

Stav

[Katt]

Wow, I'd like to say, put me down for a pair, but A) too expensive for my shallow pockets and B) I definintely don't have the experience to keep such delicate beauties. You are certainly priviledged. I wish you all the luck with them!

[Simon]

Thanks Katt and Stav~!

I am glad that so many Canadians like these so much~
I definitely like them~

All those Rhino Rat Snake photos that I have posted are of one of the females.

I finally realized that I didn't take any photo of my other females....so I took another female...

This female has MUCH more green on her~

Look at her here:

LOL~
Sorry for flooding this thread with the Rhino Pics...hope that they're not boring for you~

[Kevin McRae]

Those are some odd.........but cool snakes Simon.

Good luck with em

[Kimo]

excuse this newbish question, but i'm wondering what purpose that horn serves?

Awsome Snakes tho...deffinately gonna have to research them...

Kimo

[mettle]

As I said in another thread - awesome snakes.

Are you currently the only person breeding/producing them in Canada? And where did you get yours?

I think they're simply fantastic and if I can't get my hands on any in '05 would definitely be on the look out for some down the road. These and mandarin rat snakes have to be on my top five list of colubrids.

[Simon]

Kimo,

Those horns serves no point in them...lol....
but I think in the wild they are suppose to be like the tip end of the leafs or something like that....well the only purpose that I think that they have right now is that if I poke them....they will bite....LOL! So a button for biting me? LOL!!

Stephen,
I have no idea if I am the only breeder in Canada producing them. I know that someone else in Canada that HAD a pair. But the female died..so only the male is left. I have 1.4 of them in Canada and 1.0 in the States.

Hopefully I would be able to reproduce these in 2005. They're like MY HOPES FOR 2005. Well...also the corns and the albino emory rats.....but still~ you basically get my point~~
