Familiar face found doing well

dekaybrown · 08-14-2008, 11:02 PM

This dekay was born in my house, raised for months, then released last year.

Found in the back yard a few days ago, I photographed him and returned him so he can carry on......

If you compare this one to every other Dekayi photo, this one is quite unique, the serious look, when all the others look like cartoon charecters...

He is very cute!! Must be comforting to see them grow so big.

I am thoroughly enjoying my new Texas Brown!! And still wondering if she could possibly be hypo??

I really love the Dekayis...I released 17 babies yesterday, I kept 3 for myself. I will take a Dekayi and one of my eastern babies into my class when school starts on monday. The kids will be amazed at how small the Dekayi is.

Great that he's still out there and doing well, Wayne.
It gives hope to those of us who have released snakes, and wondered how they would manage.

that's really cool!!! the only snake i have released and then re-found was sooty...... and she's a keeper!!!

This is about the 4th or 5th of the dekay releases we have seen since release.

They seem to stay rather close to where they were set free.

With the thick slug population we have, no wonder they stick around
