Red Deer Show Spoils - Post yours.

Here are the reasons I came home from the show with very little cash in my pockets.

First it was Mark IsBell's table. It's a great place to go if you like top notch colubrids but a bad place to go if you like keeping your money! lol

Het Ghost Female:

Normal Striped Female:

Striped Snow Male:

And a male Grey Banded Kingsnake:

Then I gave most of my money to Kyle Kunimoto for the 3 KILLER Irian Jaya Carpet Pythons. Kyle is a great guy with some GREAT animals. I'm sure I'll be doing business with him again in the next while.

Male:

Female 1:

Female 2:

I tried my best not to give Jeff Favelle ANY money... EVER but he finally got the best of me! LOL

Het Albino Male Honduran:

Het Albino Female Honduran:

I'll just warn anyone considering doing business with Jeff; If you're buddies with him, he'll send you the CRAZY snakes! LOL

These two hondos are NUTS! But they are also gorgeous and as healthy as can be. Thanks Jeff!

A last minute purchase from Darwin's Oasis: (Thanks guys!

)

Het Hypo Male Honduran:

I can't remember who I got these from but I am so glad I found them. I LOVE South Florida Kingsnakes!

Female 1:

Female 2:

I picked up this little, or not so little hatchling from Katt:

Female Mexican Black Kingsnake:

Thanks to everyone for letting me leave the building with such nice animals. Most of them have already eaten for me (no Mark, not the GB! LOL). I look forward to watching them grow.

TIM:

Very nice indeed, your love for these species matchs me in Boas. I know how hard it is to think out budget and then these venders at the show find a way to wipe you out on beautiful snakes....lol.

Cya...

AWesome!!

The south floridas, I believe came from Bruce of Arachnophiliacs.

Gorgeous snow stripe, I'm totally jealous!! I think your female is a motley stripe, more than a stripe, but a beauty none the less.

I can't believe that mex blk is one of my babies! She ate for you already! Good girl!

Very nice snakes Tim! I got some nice stuff from Mark I as well that I'll be posting.

Tim_Cranwill · 09-01-04, 12:38 PM

LOL!

Thanks guys.

Katt, the normal is a motley/stripe, same gene. I'd probably call her a motley too but more of a 60/40.

And thanks for the name. That IS who they came from.

THX Tim, great pics! I'll second Katt on where the Floridas came from & that the one striped female is more of a Motley/Striped (Dad was striper/mom a Motley/Striped). Notice how the snakes from Favelle are both hiding their faces in the pics, I'd be embarassed too if Jeff was my "Dad" LOL (Just kidding JF - Nice snakes!) Good Luck with them Tim, Mark
P.S. Stupid GBs! LOL

Wow! I like the grey banded king male (nice black face!) and the Het hypo hondo the best! Sweet picks!

Great snakes Tim!

I especially like the striped normal and your second south flordian...she's a beauty!

Here are some of the stuff I got at the show.

Beautiful lavender female from the man himself (gonesnakee). Got it in trade after two years of yearning for them.

An amazing looking chocolate striped calking. This snake is what Davis Co. dreams are made of. lol. Thanks a bunch Jim (jwsporty), who btw, had an amazing collection of calkings. Some of the best I've seen in Canada.

Not pictured is a beautiful male Taiwan Beauty and a pair of '04 calkings (het choc/albino) from Ken (Invictus). Thanks man! All three were lil riley during pic taking.

That's it for snakes. Onto the arachnids.

Not an Emperor scorp, but an Asian Forest Scorp (Heterometrus spinifer). Just as big and almost as weak venomed but 10 times more fiesty!

3 Centruroides vittatus scorplings. Cute as hell! Thanks to Arachnophiliacs.

Adult Centruroides gracilis from Arachnophiliacs.

Also unpictured is a spiderling Aphonopelma seemani from, you guessed it, Arachnophiliacs!
