That's a good day out. That's quick to get that racer on rodents. Impressive.

Very cool Joe, I love all pituophus!!!

[ConcinnusMan]

yeah, they're pretty impressive. Kept a few myself over the years. Every one of them quite handleable and yet moody and grouchy sometimes putting on quite an impressive threat display with hissing and striking.
