Re: Noob ?

I have had a few ordinoides over the years...all were friendly, not one was aggressive.

Re: Noob ?

I had a group of five ordinoides some years ago. All very placcid snakes. Really wish I could get them again but not much chance in the UK.

She is very friendly and inquisitive (I like to call it sneeky snaking).

I counted 17 this time.

Re: Noob ?

If that count of 17 is accurate, you definitely have T. ordinoides, which is pretty much what most people thought anyway, I guess I clouded the issue a little with my earlier mis-count of 19!

I have not had time to recount yet, but I suspect that I also may have miscounted. I'll post results when I get time to do it!
