Michaels snakes

So I go over to this guy’s house to bid a deck job and he has pieces of 2’x10’ tin sheets just lying about … …wait for it …I ask if he minds that I just turn over a few as I collect snakes … he says "Naw go for it."
The first one I turn and wham … loads of these T. e. terrestris and I only get two.
Oh well it’s a start didn’t even try the other sheets. I really wasn’t prepared for transporting any thing. Both are very young maybe this springs or last years. Next I’ll search out for more.
Steve what do you think …send or wait? Your call

I could be wrong here, but that looks suspiciously like T. ordinoides. But they're definitely beautiful.

ship. If you think they're up to it and the condition are the best for them. Looks very nice. Maybe let them settle in for awhile to reduce all the stress they are under.
My radixes are going to be upset.
Thanks. I'll PM you my phone# or you send me yours. I have free long distance to keep all costs down.

Thanks for looking. Booth are very young and a nice orange strip on the one.

T. ordinoides yea I was leaning to that but found some pics at
http://calphotos.berkeley.edu/ which made me look at the T. e. terrestris but at any rate maybe they will grow into a nice lookers. I’ll go back soon to scout the area, the guy has a small creek running though his property with tad poles. He said the creek all but dries up in mid August.
