Cool My Favourite Ratsnakes(Hypo Everglades)

I've kept lots of ratsnakes, but these are one of my all time favourites. Orginally these were being called albino Everglades, but they are now known to be simply Hypomelanistic.
I like my orange in snakes, and these are certainly orange, and have great dispositions.
They are "smart" for colubrids. I can open the trays, and they come charging but they wont bite.
They sniff first. I wish they would teach that technique to some of my other snakes..
I'm looking forward to producing these for my first time this season...
Hope some of you other ratsnake lovers appreciate these guys



The photo below, includes a normal Everglades to show how much brighter the hypos are

Those are absolutely gorgeous - love the hypo effect.

If you are putting together a waiting list, please let me know - I would love to add my name to the list for youngsters like these - just hoping Katt doesn't get them all first!

I love that orange (I hate the color in everything except snakes - love it in snakes!!) - they are simply wonderful. Thanks for sharing photos!

Nice, Roy! Wish I hadn't sold mine.

We're really getting some good ratsnakes on this forum lately.

I love it!!

I like that orange also. That orange is the only reason i keep hold of my albino corn. Very nice looking. I don't know to much about rats. Are they normally agressive or docile?
