Introduction

[Jeremy]

Hi all,
Im new to this site. My name is Jeremy and im a venomous keeper frm the Northeast. I work mostly with the genus Aspidelaps and Agkistrodon but also have many other odds and ends(Naja, Atheris, Trimeresurus, Sisturus). Im currently working hard at reproduceing Aspidelaps lubricus and scutatus, Trimeresurus purpeomaculatus, Atheris squamigera and next yr, Agkistrodon taylori and Naja kaouthia(albinos & hets). Hopefully it will pay off but you know how the breeding games goes sometimes.

Anyway, just wanted to drop in and say hi, along with shareing a few pics. Hope you like em!

Thanks for haveing me!

All the best,
Jeremy

Welcome...nice looking snakes :cool:

Welcome aboard, Jeremy. As evident in the scorpion discussion, it seems you have already made yourself quite comfortable around here. :p

That Agkistrodon p. conanti is a monsterous specimen indeed. My last encounter with a exceptionally large specimen of this taxon left me with an eyeful of musk, quite literally. The animal was being tubed and probed, and in the process expressed its feelings towards me with a well-aimed stream of musk that hit me directly in the eye. Needless to say, that did lower the comfort level a bit... :p

The taylori is looking great, and will be an impressive adult. All of my male Agkistrodon b. bilineatus are currently off feed for the season, and I expect to produce some gorgeous offspring this spring.

As for the Aspidelaps, was this the female that dropped slugs this year? They sure are beautiful, and I hope they will produce for you sometime next year.

Regards,

Thanks everybody for the warm welcome and im glad everyone liked the pics. As Thomas aka Nighflight can concur with, I love to post pictures to the point of being annoying!:-) You can bet on more to come:-)

Welp, thanks again and NF, yep, thats the big female CC that threw 2 batches of slugs last yr:-( However, I am more opptimistic this up and coming yr for I will have another male to throw into the mix(though hes an infuscatus)and hopefully the competition will help stimulate breeding behavior in the male lubricus so he will do the job right this time. Even if its the male infuscatus I wouldnt be mad. I just want some damn baby CCs!!!!

Peace,
J

Great looking Cottonmouth. I wish they got that big in houston. The biggest one I have ever caught was a little over 3ft. But Westerns don't usually get as big as the Floridas. Great looing snakes!!

[Nikki Gervais]

Geez now I feel crumby, I completely missed yer introductory post! Well better late than never... WELCOME to ssnakess.com! And I see Donny aka casacrow has already taken it upon himself to adopt your taylori as an avatar! :D Don't blame him tho, that snake is gorgeous! You have some amazing specimens... Can't wait to see more pics! :D And here's a pic of my fav species, boiga dendrophila melanota...

impressive snakes guys and gals!!!!!!!!!!

[Jeremy]

Thanks again! Nikki, very pretty Mangrove. i used to have a 6ft female and I loved that snake dearly. Very awesome snakes and one of the most beautiful creatures on the planet. Damn, now I want my girl back! I gave her toi a freind for breeding purposes. he has a 7ft plus male that is the meanest thing with scales! You can even touch him without getting struck at!

Will, whats up bud? Im doing pretty good. Busy with work and all but good. as for Chad, I belive he has had a full recovery, last time I talked with Frank's wife. however, I havent gotten back in touch with Frank yet since Monday. Im going to give him a ring tonight so hopefully I will have the status on his condition.

Welp, thanks dudes and dolls!

Peace,
J

How long have you been here? Or did you just happen to stumble upon it recently as I myself have? Anyhow...Thanks again for the great new Coppers!!! I haven't yet stopped drooling. I just wish the pics would show the friggin pink on them!!! Stupid camera...GRRRR. Ah well...Later, Anthony.

[Jeremy]

Hey BW,
Ill tell ya what, if you can make the next Hamburg or wait untill next years Columbia show, I will bring Tiny down for a breeder loan if you want. It would be nice to take a vaction from the beast! LOL Just so long as you pamper my big boy(which to tell ya the truth, I still havent sexed! I cant belive Tiny being anything but a male though with his outrageous size! Also, the tail looks male but I always have sucked at guessing gender.) its all gravy.

Let me know and how about a pic of the horney little shella who wants to meet Tiny! Man that girl is big!!!

All the best bro,
J
