I love collared lizards. Do you breed them? I have been looking for some. I had a couple very similar to the ones in your picture many years ago. PM me.
This is the first I've heard of any mention of wild Burms in S.F. I'll have to see if I can catch that show and hear all of the python propaganda for myself.
I'm considering getting a baby GTP. There is a local breeder not far from me. I'm not sure what locale he has at all. I've seen some really crazy looking crosses lately. Some of the ones I've seen are a really nice maroon with green spotting. Have you seen those? I wonder if they will hold that...
