A terrific species, and very enthusiastic breeders!

Best of luck!

I liked them for you. Congrats on the cop

Thank you Robyn! A big thank you to you and your team for featuring some of my other animals on the Reptile Report! It's a great compliment to have my collection featured on your site!

Late to the party here, but those are a very cool species! Are they a cool weather, temperate colubrid?

They are a very easy colubrid to keep and reproduce (IF YOU DON'T RUSH THINGS). Temperatures range from 65-77 F (this is in my experience a good range throughout the year). I keep them on cypress mulch and have a wet hide filled with moss. They are not corn snake calm, UNLESS you take the time and work with them just like any other animal.

Quite frankly, those sound like a fantastic species to look into. Very nice!

Beautiful. Nice videos.

I'm just curious... the hide in the video.. did you make that or buy it? I like it. :P

MMost · 05-16-13, 05:03 AM

The hide is made by Vision. Should be able to google them search vision products. They make a wide array of injected platic hides that are dishwasher safe!

Thanks a bunch!!

Thank you again!

Hopefully next year we will have some even BETTER and MORE ELUSIVE RATSNAKES!

I am working on a website currently Home (translated Sarpamitra is "friend of the snake") and you can find even more pictures of my collection Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/pages/Sarpa...93859434103682

I will be taking more pictures of the rest of my collection early next week!
