Cool shot! Thanks Mark.

How are your brooksi projects looking this year?

Keeping my fingers crossed! Bred hypo to hypo, hypo het to 2x het/ghost, and hypo het to hypo. May get some pics through the box. I hate to disturb them just for a pic. My high orange and hets are gravid, as well as some of my mahogany colored ones. I won't have the Pinellas Co. phase this year as I lost my old female recently. I have some up and coming though.

Nice pic... I didn't even get a chance to look at my new guys belly yet. How old is that Brooksi?

....hes' an '01 and sibling to this one. I used to look for the absolute "cleanest" bellies on hypos to help me guess how'd they look when adult. Since these were mine and I wasn't "shopping" it didn't matter much since I was gonna keep 'em anyway. Lots of people get into breeding to sell their babies. I got into breeding to get the animals I want, and these fit the bill. Can't wait to breed them.

Mark, everytime you post a pic I fall in love with another snake and then you go and out do yourself!!! The colors on that second one are amazing!! I'd love to see a pic of your mahoganies!! You wouldn't happen to have a pic of their parents, the first ones almost a dead ringer for my new one, I'd love to see what I can expect from him

Yea, I know, I don't want much, huh? LOL

... but it is real dark, she's much lighter than it looks here. I know I have a better one somewhere. Dad was a snake Len Krysko owns. It pays to be buds with a lot of herpers!LOL!

Now THAT"s something worth waiting for!!! Thanks Mark, I'm liking this lil' Brooksi better and better every day

He's still hiding away, adjusting I guess. All I've seen of him is my pics the last few days

Thanks for the inspiration! I think I'm going to "check" on him now

I put the 2 of 'em together for a comparison pic. I have another just a little lighter than the red one. Kinda in-between these two.

Beautiful pair

. When I checked on my little guy, I checked his belly. Not near as clean as yours, but only a few blocks here and there. Probably won't turn out as nice as yours, but I'm still VERY happy with him. He could keep his pattern the way it is now and I'd be happy

Thanks for all the pics!!
