Red Chain (Lots of pics!!!)

These are the Red Chained

Albino version of the Red Chained











Hope you liked these~~

Man, those are gorgeous! How are they for temperment?

That albino one is incredible.

Thanks~~

Temperment wise....well of course not nearly as calm as the corns...but then they are much better than the frenatas. At least handle-able.....

but they are rear fanged so they are slightly venomous...kind of like the western hognose ....the venom is about the same too...you might bleed a tiny bit more than an usual corn bite...but other than that I haven't noticed anything different from a regular corn bite....hahahah

I think that the albino is such a killer~~
she eats like a pig too!! She's about...3 feet long now~~

How much do those babies run? And where can you get them?

I don't exactly remember how much these little ones run for.

If I remember correctly they weren't that expensive at all. WC animals were like $50US (including the shipping)

the albino one is a bit more. Cause they're actually quite rare. I think that it was around $300US for the albino one....but not too sure about this...can't remember correctly....

Where can you get these...

well I got them from a guy in Hong Kong (cause I originally came from HK so connection isn't a problem for me..)

if you want I can help you set up the stuff and get you connected with the guy.

Expect the shipping cost to be around $200US and need an import licence (well only if you get a few animals that way you MIGHT not need a lience)

I personally like the normals better than the albinos. I'm not set up for any more snakes at the moment, but when I get some more room, I'll definitely let you know. I think they are really awesome looking snakes. Can you get Captive bred animals yet?

Simon what kind of camera are you using and what settings are you using. Close ups are great I have a hard time getting my camera to do it.

MegF,

I don't know...I guess I like to fool around with the genetic stuff more so that is why I like the albino more. But of course I like both normal and albino. Or else I wouldn't be getting both of them right?

I don't think that you're able to get any cb animals in North America yet. I know that you can get some cb animals in Japan, Germany and China (not a lot but still some)

Yeah I think that they're definately an awesome species to work with.

Hosstheman,

I am using a Minolta F100 digital camera. All I did was set the camera at macro with flash on...and that was it. Although taking these photos were not that easy...it did take me some time but its definitely all worth it~~ I just love taking photos of my snakes~~

If you need any more information, I'll be glad to help if you need any.
