Just curious if anyone on here keeps this race of Texas, specifically if you got them from Rapps. I'm probably ordering some Escondido and possibly some Chairel from him this coming month, and would like to see some Chairel since youtube doesn't seem to have any videos of them.
 
I got a couple of Carpintis sp Chariel from Rapps a few years ago. I wasn't really into them so I sold them. The Escondido's look better imho.

I don't have a pic of him when I got him at 2" in Sept or Oct of '07.

But this is from Feb 2008

And from May 2008. You can see the other one to the left. The black coloring stayed on them all the time if I remember correctly.

I have grown and breed the mex princess and escondidos.... I agree escondidos are better looking... What is your location? I have a proven breeding pair and fry available if your interested...
