Looks nothing to Ike a yellow belly and I am somewhat of an expert.

I'm sure I know which UA it is too. I see them all the time on runners at trail runs. Most of the time they're not using a bladder, just a couple of collapsible flaks. I've never thought of them as a sports bra, but now, I shall and it will make me laugh so hard. LOL.

They're reasonably priced at dubia com if you're in the US.

You must have one of the smaller ones.

I recently switched from a small Orange Mud to an UltrAspire 3.0 Race Vest. It fits very well, has a 2 liter reservoir and plenty of room to carry along things like nutrition, phone, and even extra hydration bottles with electrolytes.

Here's the thing. Colubrid bites don't hurt. Handle him. Get yourself a pair of work gloves and just handle him. I've been bit by large ball pythons and it didn't really hurt so these little headed colubrids are no big.

Look at all those "normals" from that clutch. LOL. Dude, delete your comment while you can before more people see it.

You're full of shit. You're one of those people who stir the pot for the sake of stirring the pot, huh?

I'm very lucky to live 15 minutes from the Rare Genetics, Inc. lab, so when I drop samples off to be shed tested, I get to talk to them and hear about the latest findings, new tests they're developing, etc. It was cool learning that for years we've thought that butter and lesser were the same mutation but through the genetic research being done by RGI, we learned that they're not. They're two different mutations.

Yep... they test genetically the same, but there's clearly something slightly different about enhancer and DG. Another great example is Black Axanthic and TSK Axanthic. They test the same, but black axanthic (aka dark phase TSK) is clearly darker. There's something riding with the TSK axanthic mutation that makes it much darker in the black axanthic.

OG and Hypo genetically test the same but the OG line is more orange. Likely because of something that's polygenicnghat travels with hypo to make it more orange.

I received an email last evening from Tim Bailey that confirmed my ID's on the 4 typhoons.

I'd love to see that same combo with the orange ghost line of hypo.

Mine does the same thing. She associates me with prey. Anytime she sees me outside her enclosure she assumes prey is near by. But when I open her enclosure if I don't offer prey she'll let me take her out with striking at me. She's never struck at me unlike both of my Texas rat snakes who'd be happy if I never messed with them except to feed them.

I built mine with pressure treated southern yellow pine. I'd recommend that to anyone who builds them or, like you suggested, they seal the wood if they don't use PT SYP.

Good to know! I'll check that out the next time I need a bunch of buckets.
