Hello Everyone!

Sooooo I need experienced owners info please! I'm debating on getting a Black Tailed Cribo but I just want to find out all I can on them before deciding if I should or not. Anything you have tell me please!

Feeding response, care, temperament, activity level, housing etc etc just let me have it! lol

I don't keep them. All I know is they're beautiful critters. I hope you find what you're looking for.

Thank you! I did find a breeder and I'm waiting for a summer baby now :) I'm so excited!! I will for sure be posting pictures when I get the little guy

I donīt know a lot about these lovely snakes, but I have read these articles about them. Black-Tailed Cribo (http://www.reptilesmagazine.com/Black-Tailed-Cribo/)
https://www.blackpearlreptiles.com/caresheet
They have lots of information I would take into consideration.
Maybe you already read these, but reviewing them is always helpful.

No BTC experience, but 1.1 Eastern indigo and 1.1 Texas indigo experience. I'm assuming the black tails are like other Drymarchon, so be ready for: crazy feeding response, very active/alert, pretty chill once you get them out of enclosure. Mine are good w handling, but they never "stop" moving like a boa or ball python. And be ready for more smelly poop than you can imagine. Very fast metabolism and it seems like about every 3-4 days I'm scooping something out of the substrate.
