Snake of the Day 03-01-16

Show & Tell

This 2015 male Granite Gray-banded Kingsnake (Lampropeltis alterna) is taking one of his first unaltered live pinky mice. When he and his siblings were just weeks old–and only two of them had taken altered frozen/thawed pinky mice for me–I sent all of them to John Finsterwald in Colorado.  He did his magic on them and sent all of them back to me feeding on unaltered frozen/thawed pinky mice.
