Very very sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetttttttttttt. Cheers. I love the lil things.
My adders are the one species of vens I regret letting go (giving away). I stopped keeping vens when my daughter was born. Will definately recollect when the kids are old enough. All in good time.
Thanks for the refresh of memories..
Top pics also. Thanks Ad

For the uninitiated adder newbie, what are the ones in pics 2 & 3 in the first post and the last pic in the second ?
Wonderful looking animals. Head on the last pic almost looks scorched. Amazing, thanks.

Thanks Wrasse and Glimmerman for the pic comments - I cant take credit for the animals though!
Wrasse those animals are wellsi , Banded/Blackhead form. The second one in the second lot of pics is a Wellsi also.
A couple more....
The Pyrrus is suspected gravid so it will be interesting to see offspring. Inside and outside shot (how red??) and another of the classic wellsi,
Enjoy.

Love the adders ad, very nice. I really love the B&R wellsi. They are definately on my want list. Unfortunately, like glimmerman, I can't have them until my son is old enough to understand and stay away. But, eventually I will have them. I just have to stick with rescues to get my dose of vens atm....LOL
What price would the wellsi hatches go for out of curiosity?

| I wouldnt have a clue Hugsta, as far as adders go they are rare in captivity and absolutely stunning,- as usual, you need something to sell before speculating -
but Im guessing not cheap. Hatchies should look so good they will sell themselves! lol
Glad ya like em
Cheers

Yeh, I expect they would be worth a bit, certainly worth it for adder fans though. I know if I was able to keep them I would get them. Gorgeous snakes.
