I realized I never started a thread for our Taiwanese Beauty Snakes! We're having two males, but decided to rehome our adult male as he was taking a looot of spaces, and tbh we didn't feel too attached to him. So now we're having one 2015 albino Tai called Zieft.
Few pics of Zieft:

riddick, he's a little jumpy, but does not bite so far, so it's okay! :)

Ya, beauty snakes are typically pretty active, and a large adult wants a much larger enclosure to move around in than most other snakes of the same size from what I've gathered. One reason I like the climacophora, they don't grow so large or need nearly as much space as adults. The beauty snakes are great though, and if I had enough space for suitable enclosures I'd have one or two, lol.

toddnbecka, exactly, we feel like he was not having enough space, and at the same time, we needed his enclosure for our females Russians, as after breeding they can't be in the same enclosure as male. So the only logical thing was to sold the big Tai male and rearrange his tank, haha! The baby albino stays for now as he's rather funny in all his jumping and clumsiness... and he's okay in the tanks we're having, haha!

Hmm, I would say similiar to corn snakes or garter snakes, so not super fast, but also not as calm as ball pythons or boa constrictors :) And thank you!

dave himself, thank you! :D We like to find "rare" colubrids that are easy to care for, haha! Hope that in the next year we'll got a pair of Baron's Green Racer (the breeder that bought one pair of our schrenckii wanted to trade pair for pair, but unfortunately his Baron's eggs died in incubator this year). Beside some picky eaters like balls and now hognoses all the others are super easy, beginner snakes! :D
Ian, thank you too! I'll try to do better pics of Drona in a few days, but she's sooo curious about everything...
