JonnyB...I think you're wrong! I believe it's Viperuscous articulatus ssp. pinkalobus, which is not common at at all. The vertibral markings are very unique, particularly with the pairs of chevron accents at the back of each patterns. The common pink viper doesn't have anywhere near as elaborate a pattern. It sure would be nice to find a pair of these and get a breeding program going! [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

Hard to tell from the photo...but is that tail kink above or below the vent?

	Cloaca is the posterior opening that serves as the only such opening for the intestinal, urinary, and (usually) genital tracts of certain animal species.All birds, reptiles, and amphibians possess this orifice, from which they excrete both urine and feces

I think that I may have a different locality or sub species of that snake.... slightly longer and black with green diamonds..... I was told it was a snakius plasitcus.
