Hi All,

I've been keeping snakes for about 20 years and I'm currently breeding/working with BRB's, Hondo's and Spilotes pullatus (Tiger Rats). Looking forward to learning and sharing with you all.

I'm still hoping to glean more info about Spilotes sp. Information is hard to come by about these guys. I've got a 8'+ '06 F and two 7' M/F '07's.

Ah, Spilotes, gotta love them. I tried keeping them but never had much luck. The only ones I could get access to were imports and never did well even with a full course of dewormers and antibiotics. I would love to see pictures of yours though. I don't think there are that many people working with them. I know Mark M. Lucas has had pretty good luck with them- you can find him on Kingsnake.com

My pics are of Tiger ratsnakes...and they have a well deserved reputation for being flighty, bitey, and angry :) Fun snakes but they aren't 'nice' by any stretch. I love 'em
