Re: Loki, my Eastern Indigo

Always amazing indigo! He looks great em. You have done a masterful job with him. Wish I had a indigo in my collection and maybe someday I will. Thanks for a refreshing look at his progress.

Re: Loki, my Eastern Indigo

It's been a long time since I've added any photos. Loki shed today, so I took him outside and let him explore the grass a bit.

Thanks! But, if you're in FL, as your profile says, I don't think you'll have much luck getting a permit for an eastern indigo, unless you're involved in their conservation in some way.

Re: Loki, my Eastern Indigo

I know, I'm probably going with Texas because rubidus is expensive

Ah, I see. They're all very similar and awesome snakes. Hope you get one.

Re: Loki, my Eastern Indigo

Living in central Florida where they used to be so common until the housing boom. When I was 12 I saw fairly large one at a fish farm. After the housing boom indigo, eastern diamond backs, and gopher tortoises were reduced to such small numbers that the habitat indigos need disappeared.

I don't get tired of seeing photos of your Indigo. Such a beautiful snake. How big is he now?

Re: Loki, my Eastern Indigo

Thanks, you guys. I have a snake and a camera and I get bored sometimes.

I think he's right around 5 1/2 feet. I need to measure him. He seems to have gone through a growth spurt, despite not eating particularly well the past few weeks.

That is a fine looking serpent. Looks like he owns the place.
