Who are the pituophis fans here?

Thanks for the positive feedback bud , much appreciated for sure!.

I certainly feel very blessed to have created so many beautiful and unique annectens over the decades , never taken for granted and always a honour.

Oh munchies goodness!!! That’s a gorgeous jani, always one of my favorite locals and that one is top notch :+1:. I’m jealous man.

Thanks jrc , I’m so glad I opted to keep that one back , the aberrant markings were the initial reason. I’m so happy that the colours eventually developed so wonderfully.
Over the decades I’ve been lucky enough to hatch out some outstanding examples , not to mention a purely unique hypo male. :+1:

The tail of my hypo deppei jani . note the complete lack of any black / dk brown compared to his lady friend (on the right edge of pic)

Another pic for comparison , this aberrant female has a nice red tail , but unlike the hypo some black remains

I’m very big into patternless stuff like sterling in boas so the second one is my favorite :sunglasses:

Which pits generally have the nicest temperament? Love the look and size of these guys!

Pits are mostly bluffers in general , but for me the answer has to be P. c. annectens

I agree with the previous answer, the San Diego Gophers (annectans) are by far the most docile, even considering the bluffing of all members of Pituophis. That said, I have picked up dozens of wild Great Basin Goohers that never attempted to strike. Most of the WC basins I just hatched are chill too, right out of the egg. Except one out of the five, he’s fierce and highly reactive. I like him the best. I like snakes that don’t like me much, for some reason. I find it adorable, even in bigger snakes, if not giant ones. I like the really big ones to be nice and calm.
