Ok thank you they were in the container originally as a way to show the color comparison to our local southerns for a post on my accounts for other apps because I have alot off costumes who tell me they've seen diamond backs in our area which there are only southerns but thank you again

Hi Patrick,
Beautiful spotting. I mean who doesn't love Southern Pacifics?

We prefer at Project Noah though for the spottings to feature a natural background or an explanation of why the animals are being temporarily held if they are being used in a scientific study, conservation project or relocation project.

We don't like to encourage our younger members to to things that may put them or any creatures in harms way.

Here is a link to our faq's to help guide you. If you have any questions, I will be more than happy to help!

Regards, Lisa

Thank you very much. I'm sorry about not placing markers or the name correct I'm new to the site and I usually shorten everything so I'm not use to saying the while name or giving location fully but ill do it for now on. I went threw and redid all of it so it will be correct

These are all wilds that are all from the same city just two colors from the north end of town and two colors from the south end

interesting indeed. They look so much like the Russell's viper in the brown phase!

I adjusted to the full scientific name. Interesting. Are these captives then? Not all from the location marker on the map?
