Re: Pseustes poecilonotus

You have GOT to put me on your list for babies when you breed them, ESPECIALLY those poecilonotus!!

Great looking snakes I can only imagine what a 14 footer would look like.

I should be breeding them next year but I am not sure if any will be available, I have quite a few people interested in these. We will have to see how many eggs I get and what happens when deposits need to be put down.

They tend to double clutch as well so I guess we will have to see how many eggs I get in each clutch and how many people get the money out. I am hoping to add a couple more females to my group this year or next and unrelated females if at all possible.

Re: Pseustes poecilonotus

Those are really really neat snakes! I love some of the more obscure colubrids!
I've got an 8 foot or so LTC Spilotes pullatus who's just a nut. She puffs, drums her tail, rears like a cobra....really cool behavior.

Do these guys rear or tail drum?

Yeah, some more than others and on some days more than others. I catch them randomly puffing once in a while like they are practicing looking tough and I have seen one of them scare himself and and have a whole battle with his tail and the leaves in his cage. They have character to spare!

Re: Pseustes poecilonotus

Very cool snakes, I love colubrids so this is double interesting. How much do these guys go for if you don't mind me asking?

It is an open market right now. Only 2-3 guys breeding them in the US, and depending on the parent stock and if you have heritage beyond the parents to show colors in the lineage you can get more. But we are looking at around $300-$500 an animal right now. If we can prove that any of the lines can inherit color like the parents some line will go up. Problem is they are all born looking the same for the most part and it takes 12-18 months to see adult colors.

Re: Pseustes poecilonotus

Jason - those individuals are very interesting - though I have no experience with them. Inflated 'necks' like the Gonysoma etc.
That woodpecker video is pure - how natural and how lucky the observers, what a treat.
