Crazy Dave
I decided to change my username. I am Dave Partington. Formerly "davesfiles". It took me awhile to wrap my peabrain around the concept of being "me", that is, to not hide behind a username that was not my real name. Somehow made me less acountable to not be the name I am. So I've decided to change it for my own reasons; not for reasons inflicted on me. A few others around these here parts have usernames that are also their real names. Special thanks to those persons for showing me it's okay to be me. You know who you are.
I've become overly addicted to corn/snakes in the last 10.5 months. There's 87 snakes in the upstairs today. Two are on loan. Six are Mexican Black Kings. I always wash my hands before handling them. They like to chew; they don't triangulate their heads before getting a mouthful of hand/fingers. No warning. I always wash up before handling those snakes.
And then there's 1.1.6 Sinaloan Milks. My Dad was looking to hook up his male, "Fluffy", with a lady friend for a brief encounter... and so I went to that darned reptile show/sale Repticon thing in October of 1008 in Orlando looking for a g/f for Fluffy. Didn't find one, but my eyes lain to rest on a cornduran on the way out, so he came home with me. That lil buggar sort of set me back into cornsnakes, which had been my first love in the snake world, having found a Green Swamp c/s several decades back. The rest of the snakes are cornsnakes. Save a Honduran cv. 'Sunrise', which needs a home, and is spoken for at the moment.
I just last week got 2 paradox corns from Rich Z:
an adult female caramel with black blotches on her, and a gray/black anery het lavender, with blizzard white irregular blotches down her back.
NOTE: If you're looking for something special for a breeding project, why not drop Rich Z an email and ask if he has what you're looking for, rather than waiting for him to list things for sale, because if you wait, you might miss out on opportunity. In fact, this concept applies to all snake breeders. )
I keep a list of reptile breeders/dealers on my website, here:

If you have a site and it is not on there, please let me know;
There's instructions on how to do so at the top of that page.
Thanks
