............well, my apologies to carol (lowbellyreptiles) for not getting her pictures up sooner but with the holidays and a few other things happening this had to take a backseat for awhile. as luck would have it a storm passed through today so outside pictures in natural light would not work and i was forced to take them inside with the dreaded flash. now granted, i wanted some red in my snakes but these pictures add a "tad" more than what is really there. who knows, maybe after a few more sheds they will start to darken like this and continue to add the red. anyway, first up is Helix, a milksnake-phase miami that is currently weighing in at 38 grams. he is a wonderful snake that always eats and is one of the calmest in my collection. i think he is going to be gorgeous and his saddles have allot more beige than the red it shows. the second set is of Saraya, a normal miami, which comming from Carol really makes it not "just a normal". she tipped the scales at feeding time today with a whopping 11 grams of pure sweetness as she is just as friendly as Helix and her saddle color is more of a dark-brown to go along with some red also. both arrived here on Dec. 7th and neither has refused a meal or tried to get nasty with me. all in all it was a perfect transaction and Carol is great to deal with, even helping me out now and then to make it work. my thanks to her for the professionalism and to you people for looking. i think these will be fun to watch mature.

Nice pair, Galen. That Miami's going to be awesome. I can't really see any tan on its head or neck, which is a really good sign. :)
 
They are both beautiful! I have a "thing" for the Miami's (which is why I also have one from Carol!). And I couldn't agree more...Carol is wonderful to work with and I hope to do more business with her this year.
I look forward to seeing these two progress!
 
thank you very much people..........i think i might have to add something here. i posted these on my upstairs computer as that is where the software for my camera is to download pics. however, it is a very old computer and after coming downstairs and getting on my laptop it appears that those pics are almost "identical" to real life. obviously my monitor/computer needs replaced because thewhole saddle almost looked maroon. anway, thanks again for the comments and glad to know the colors showed up as in real-life. :)
 
Great looking two. Was wondering when I was going to see them. Oh, and good pics btw.

Do you have a Tesla, Kix or Warlock in your collection yet?

yes.........Tesla is a butter and one i got at an expo that had gotten his tail tip stuck into the lid of a deli-cup and closed. needless to say i got him very cheap and of all my snakes, he is the only one who has NEVER refused a meal. (34 total i think)

Kix has been on the waiting list for awhile and has moved up to #2 in line for my next male.

Warlock was considered, as was Doro (Pesch, the lead singer) but were replaced with Lita and Sass, two abbotts okeetees who have yet to get their pics put into a thread as they were bought recently and have had to wait like Helix and Saraya.

Among the others already taken are: Slaughter, Steelheart, Dokken, Jackyl, Vixen, Cinderella, WASP, Firehouse............and Ace, Star and Onyx who were obviously named by the wife.

Saraya is amazing! I'm sure my miami male, Tony. Would approve!

thank you..........but i think i will be paying attention to who comes knocking at the door for a few more years at least. LOL
 
They both look really good, but i don't see the milksnake factor in Helix... are they not supposed to be banded?
