Went out to watch the DEC do a trout survey on one of the streams around here this morning. When I got back it was pretty cold but sunny, a good day to look for my friends lounging on window sills. Sure enough, walked into the sunspace and BINGO! New snake (nice green "Maratime"). And one of the regulars hiding in a pile of garden hose. Kind of funny. The concrete floor is starting to warm up, so they are getting more active.

Hay Rhea do you think that this is Chloe’s sister? Sure would like to see her after she sheds.



lots of hiding places! Just like two years ago, good spot for snakes.

Ooooo, look at the pretty green one! That's one colour I have not seen in any of the garters around here. Yet!

Check out post#41, I think there is a family resemblance there. Speaking of posts, #52 is pretty good Stefan. I do believe that they were getting a little spoiled.

Terry,

Are we being Punk'd. These are really yours aren't they. They're not wild at all. Captive bred. After each post you and your buddies sit back and laugh. I can see it. You sitting there, drinking a nice cold glass of tea and the snakes munching on a few worms, laughing and talking about your next set-up

These are great photos and truly show how these wild snakes trust you. I can't wait for your next installment. If your wife gives you too much of a hard time, let us know. We'll all sign a petition in your favor. I know, I'm addicted to this thread and during the season, need it.

Anji: I do love that green!
Rhea: It's not just you, the shape of her head, eyes and color (almost no markings till she gets rid of that old skin) struck me too.
Steve: It would be WAY too much trouble to fake this stuff.

I keep forgetting a lot of folks have joined since I started this thread two years ago. Chloe is a snake that I gave to Rhea in 2007 when she stopped by to see the sunroom (proof it does exist Steve). Here she is after her first shed in captivity. You can see the similarities.

Maybe these two should get a room! Oh! Wait they have a room.

If we had a "Best Thread Ever" contest, this one would get my vote.
