Hi everybody,
My name is Fons, I live in Holland, have a wife and three sons. Married with children, so to speak.
I am 50 yaers old and keep reptiles since I was a very little boy.
The first snakes I bought were Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis (in the early seventies).
After a number of years I did not keep any Thamnophis anymore. I was to busy starting up, together with two friends, a shelter (sanctuary) for reptiles.
This has become one of the largest reptilezoos in Europe. If you want to see more, visit
Iguana.
Since a number of months I keep Thamnophis again (private) and I still think they are fantastic snakes.
In this moment I keep:
1.1 Thamnophis atratus atratus
1.1 Thamnophis sirtalis sirtalis
1.0 Thamnophis sirtalis tetrataenia (2 females are ordered and will arrive soon)
Friendly greetings from the Netherlands
Fons
