Re: Melanogaster babies photos

They are very nice I agree with Sid, but then again we live a bit too far away But Mexico has some very unique garterspecies

Hey Robert, how are your babies progressing? Are they all eating okay? Can I have some?

Re: Melanogaster babies photos

Glad to see the little ones are doing well. Know you had some feeding issues with them. They're gorgeous little snakes.

Cool Re: Melanogaster babies photos

Hey Robert,

I heard from Steven Bol, a breeder in the Netherlands who has done some fieldstudies in Mexico that the juveniles of T. melanogaster canescens all differ in color when they are born.
This has to do with the fact that predators cannot get used to a particular color as prey. Maybe this is also so for T. m. melanogaster.

Maybe I want to loan a few of the pics from you for on my site again...
Okay?
