Coachwhips?

Just checking to see if anyone is doing anything-breeding, keeping coachwhips? Just curious. I have a friend who is also a naturalist and we used her display coachwhip for a program. He was stunning and I didn't even get tagged. Just call me the snake charmer.

I am looking for a juvie E. or W. Coachwhip. I hope to find one this spring but please contact me if you have one to rehome. I am permitted for wild-caught specimens.

Thanks, Tandy

Doc Minson is the only person I know that keeps them, although I would like to. He is not on the forum though. He might have a spare.

That's no joke. but its just that easy. We are all gonna burn our internet connections one day and go back to CBs. MARK MY WORDS!!!!

Hello all. Please let me know if you come across any juvie W. Coachwhips and I would still love to find a CB. All of my potential sources have fallen through and I think a CB juvie will fare better in the long run with what I put them through program-wise. I can't believe I'm looking for one after having a 4' one named "Spaz" and a 6' one named "Tag." I'm guess I'm a glutton for punishment.

May have found a w. coachwhip. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

I have a handsome new addition I have named Norman (yes as in Bates-LOL) and I have to say that I am totally smitten by him (or her but a girl named Norman would sound dumb). I might have to actually find my PhotoBucket password and post some pics.

Congratulations Tandy.
If it's a girl, could you just drop the n ??

Sorry, I really don't like "Orman" for a girl either. ROFL.

Well, Norman has had a nice shed and is eating f/t rodents for me. He remains pretty mellow for a coachwhip and I have found that he is mesmerized by the tv. I was interested in observing one over the long term and he is perfect. Just as my husband and I were talking about their keen vision and wondering how well they see 3D movement, Norman reacted to a man punching at the camera lens on tv. The timing was hilarious.

Just call me weird coachwhip woman, Tandy

That's so cool.
I guess being a visual/site predator also makes for being a good tv viewer.
