Re: Brb

Try this web site. Ben Segiel is really good. I got mine from DTS herps. Jeff Clack is who my buddy Shawn got his from. I'll try finding his web site. But for now try this one.

Re: Brb

Mine only stuck at me once ever. Never bit me, but did bite himself. lol
I had another BRB years ago that was mellow as can be. It never struck or try to bite either. I don't know where people get their nippy. Besides the two i own i handle three other and two CRB and never had a problem.

Re: Brb

I got mine from D&K Reptiles as well but I too live close and picked him up. I have never had a problem with him. I've had Skittles for about 6 months now and he has never even struck at me, let alone bite me (or my boyfriend) - and I handle him often and usually for long periods of time. His sheds are perfect. Eats perfectly - never hesitates - even when he's in shed. So, when I was researching I figured that I'd be bit at some point by now - especially at the beginning when he was younger.

Here is D&K's website: Home | D&K Reptile Sales

If you go to the master list from the homepage, I think that has a more updated list of current snakes for sell. Unfortunately, I don't see any on that page but it says under 'available animals' that there are 2010 babies coming soon
