Louisiana Pinesnakes

Louisiana Pines are one of the rarest snakes found in North America. Their relatively small range is found along the Louisiana/Texas border in the upland longleaf pine forests. Unfortunately there has been some ruthveni that are of questionable origins. My animals are from the well known Vandeventer line that originates from Bienville Parish in Louisiana. Louisiana Pines can be quite variable in color and pattern, my group is from a line that is known for having a nice yellow ground color. Hatchlings are among the largest from any North American snake and are ready to take on the world.
