And like i already said, very fine examples. very nice red stripes.

My girl is gravid and due any day now. A few months from now I'll brumate her along with Flicker's boy and see if I can get them to lock in Feb or March. They make a nice pair, don't you think?

My girl (the one with the red stripe):


The boy "Flicker" I plan to father her babies next year:


I'm so thankful and excited to join these two, and possibly also become "OrdinoidesMan" LoL. I mean, aren't these two just the most awesome northwesterns or what?

The really cool part is that both of these snakes were found within 5 miles of each other so the babies should be very hardy and have very compatible genes.

Richard,
Let's put it this way...they are both sooo beautiful I find myself considering a trip to the Northwest to go herping! Seattle and on down the coast in to Oregon is one of my favorite places on earth and now it's calling out my name!
Of course if I don't make it up there then I'll watch and hope for your success in breeding these two beauties!
Good Luck!

Yeah, the thing is you can find hundreds, if not thousands of northwesterns over the course of years, before finding a gem as pretty as these. Most northwesterns around here are actually quite dull. I found her at a den site actually, that was teeming with thousands of snakes back in March. She was the only red striped one I saw and was one of very few still hanging out near the den in May.

That being said...I'll just hope for your success!

Well there's a good chance for babies that look like mom (red stripe girl) this year. I don't understand what's taking her so long. I swear she's about to explode!
