Good evening Folks.....

Good evening Folks,
I am UK based and I have just tonight joined your forum.
I have spent some 30+ years keeping and breeding herps, and I have a particular preference for the genus Thamnophis.
I am now "re-entering" the herp-keeping arena, after a few years absence due to the demands of my job, and I look forward to being a positive contributor to this forum in the future.
I wish you all a good evening.
Cheers,
Brian.

Hi Brian, and welcome to thamnophis.com. We often give second and third opinions on this forum to either show a concensus or to show new/different techniques, so I hope you'll join in the conversations often. It's always great to hear about a new way to do things. Enjoy your visits.

Folks,
Thanks for the warm welcome - I am sure I will get to know most of you much better as time goes on.
James asked me what I was keeping at the present moment, and while my overall snake collection is quite varied, the Thamnophis content is limited to the following at present;
1.1 T. sirtalis tetrataenia (hopefully girl is gravid !)
1.2 T. marcianus (juveniles, all hetero for amelanistic)
0.0.2 T. ordinoides (standard, but very well marked, juveniles - poss 1.1)
6.4 T. sirtalis pickeringi (blue phase - but a new post coming about these tonight in a more appropriate area !).

The shopping list is already formulating for this year, and hopefully by Xmas the Thamnophis count and diversity will be much higher !!
Again, thanks for the warm welcome.
Cheers,
Brian.

Wow, Brian. Nice Thamnophis collection! If you don't mind my asking, where did you get the T. ordinoides?
