He lahilahi lākou a he ʻano ʻōniʻoniʻo ʻulaʻula, ʻalani, apricot, ʻeleʻele, keʻokeʻo, melemele, ʻeleʻele a hina paha. Hoʻopaʻa mau ʻia nā kaha ʻulaʻula e nā kaha ʻeleʻele haiki. Me kā lākou hiʻohiʻona, ua like kekahi mau ʻano, e like me ka nahesa delta, me nā nahesa koʻa ʻona loa.

Akā ʻoiaʻiʻo, maʻalahi lākou e ʻike: ʻAʻohe ʻano ʻeleʻele haiki i nā nahesa koʻa, he ʻulaʻula a keʻokeʻo wale nō.

Ma hea kahi e noho ai nā nahesa aliʻi?

Loaʻa nā ʻano ʻano like ʻole o nā moʻi moʻi mai ka ʻaoʻao hema o Kanada ma o USA a me Mekiko i kekahi mau wahi o ʻAmelika Hema, e like me ʻEkuador. Ma muli o ke ʻano, makemake nā moʻo nahesa i kahi maloʻo a i ʻole nā ​​​​wahi māmā. Makemake kekahi e noho ma kahi kokoke i nā māla palaoa no ka mea hiki iā lākou ke loaʻa ka ʻai ma laila, e like me nā ʻiole.

He aha ke ʻano o ka moʻi nahesa ma laila?

Pehea ke ola o na moi?

Hoʻoikaika nā Kingsnakes i ka lā a i ke ahiahi paha, e pili ana i ke kau. ʻOi loa i ka pūnāwai a me ka hāʻule, aia lākou i waho a kokoke i ka lā. I ke kauwela, ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe, hopu wale lākou i ka mea pio i ka pō a i ʻole i ka pō - inā ʻaʻole, wela loa iā lākou.

ʻO Kingsnakes nā mea hōʻemi. Hoʻopili lākou iā lākou iho i kā lākou mea pio a laila ʻokiʻoki. ʻAʻole lākou ʻona. I loko o ka terrarium, hiki i nā holoholona ke lilo maoli.

Ua kapa ʻia kekahi mau moʻo mōʻī, ʻo ia hoʻi ka nahesa delta, he "milk snake" ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa. Noho lākou i kekahi manawa i loko o nā hale kaʻa, ʻo ia ke kumu i manaʻo ai ka poʻe ma mua ua omo lākou i ka waiū mai ka ʻū o nā bipi. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo naʻe, aia wale nā ​​nahesa i loko o nā hale kiaʻi e hahai ai i nā ʻiole. Ke moʻo nā holoholona, ​​ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka pūpū.

ʻO kekahi mau ʻano nahesa mōʻī e moe moe i nā mahina ʻoluʻolu o ka makahiki. I kēia manawa, hoʻohaʻahaʻa ʻia ka mahana o ka terrarium a ʻaʻole i hoʻomālamalama ʻia ka pahu no nā hola he nui.

E like me ka nui o nā nahesa, kau hua nā moʻi moʻo. Hana ʻia ka male ma hope o ka hibernation i ka pūnāwai. Hoʻomoe nā wahine i ʻehā a ʻumi mau hua ma kahi o 30 mau lā ma hope o ka male ʻana a hoʻomoe iā lākou i ka lepo mahana. Hāpai nā pēpē ma hope o 60 a 70 mau lā. He 14 a 19 kenimika ko lākou kiʻekiʻe a kūʻokoʻa koke. Hiki iā lākou ke oʻo i ka moekolohe ma kahi o ʻelua a ʻekolu mau makahiki.

Pehea e kamaʻilio ai nā moʻi nahesa?

Ma waho aʻe o ka waihoʻoluʻu, hoʻopunipuni kēia a hoʻopaʻa i nā ʻenemi hiki, no ka mea ke manaʻoʻiʻo nei lākou he nahesa ʻawaʻawa weliweli i mua o lākou.
