Re: Rough green snake questions

they are a very nervous snake, you must provide a tall enclosure with lots of cover, like fake vines, planted bushes, or tree limbs.

Put some crickets in there and leave everything alone.

The snake may not eat in front of you for some time.

For husbandry, think 'anole" or small chameleon. These are not "hands-on" snakes to handle a lot. Great display animals.
