Dear Venomland Members and Friends, Venomland is a little more than 6 years old now and by far the biggest Hot Snake community on the Planet! We want to thank all of you who made Venomland the leading Board. We are also very thankful to our Moderators and Admins for years of hard work. Now, it is time to move on. I have been thinking how to proceed and what to do with our beloved board as we reach a size, that we need to make drastic changes to secure the future of our community. As of now, Venomland is hosted by a free (well mostly free) hosting service. That was good for the first years but now we need to find a new way to run our forum. I have spend hundreds of Dollars over the years to keep Venomland up and running, and i have done so with pleasure. Now, we need your help! We need to come up with several thousand dollars for our Venomland 2.0 project, which i frankly cant pay for any longer by myself. So Venomland is asking his Friends and Members for the first time for their financial Support. Please help to keep Venomland alive, and let us move on to a new, better Portal in the Future! Every Dollar is helping us a great deal. I know, its hard times for everyone, but please spare a few Dollar for our community. If you have only 10 Dollars to spare, we are grateful, if it is more, it would be awesome. We are planning to develop a very new Venomland, with real community functions, a forum like you are already loving it and a real (online) Hot Snake Magazin. Also, there will be download areas for scientific papers, Wallpapers and more. Again folks, we can only do that if you all help. Please send me a Private Message if you want to keep Venomland alive, i will provide you with the details on how to donate Money. For now, we can accept money from creditcards via skrill (please google it, its a free service - account-details will be forwarded to you) and paypal. All the best, and for a (hopefully) nice future of our Board. Mario

A nice reddish one Albert,

for me it looks like you was on an differend spot than the times before. Because this ammodytes looks not similar to the last one.

I have a few spots that I regularly visit, they have not much distance between themselves and that V.ammodytes is from the same place as others.

Maby I found the time for a short stop in Slovenia, where I have to found my first ammodytes.
All the years when I was there, on good spots, I have had bad weather (rain, rain,....)
This year it looks better ;-)

If you find the time for a short stop in Slovenia, feel free to contact me and I will show you some nice ammodytes in our country Wink

As already Peter Zürcher said, it is normal for neonates/juveniles that they have this reddish belly and I saw this too by some adults which is not so unusual for this location. I tried to find some old pictures of C.austriaca from my archive to compare the head markings but I could not find any and this snake was the only one I found today at that place, where they are quite common.

Here is another picture from the same snake

Yes, males will match for this. It was around 10-15 years ago, but I remember very good, because it was only this one that has shown this coloration. And over the years I´ve found more than 50 C. austriaca all over in Germany , Italy , France and only one in Austria.
But, such things happends when you have a walk with the dog and has no Camera with me.

Very nice snakes again Albert,

and like you and Peter wrote, the smal one shows this coloration! The last two days I have visit some places in Austria where C. austriaca and V. ammodytes lives, but I can´t find a Coronella. Today I´m thinking to went to Italy, because the weather is very cloudy here, and for north Slowenia it looks not better than on my place.

Today I found a very nice semi-adult Coronella austriaca, which had reddish patterns on its body instead of dark grey or black. Very Happy

Here are some pics..

Hi Albert,
It seems to me, that you want to be a Coronella Specialist ;-) But allways nice snakes.
BTW: I was for some hours in Slowenia, but only in the border part to Carinthia, we have had a walk for two hours, but it was a point of very high elevation and it was foggy and a little bit to cold to find something. Maby e the next time!

Hi Arjan, I have only this picture from him where he is whole on the image. This guy still has the old skin from last year so that he should be even nicer after shedding and when I'm lucky to find him again with new skin, I'll post the pics Wink
