Re: Mud snakes
I got the mud snake for my birthday in 93/94(can't remember for sure) from a local pet shop and had it until around 99 when it died. It wouldn't take crayfish or goldfish, it strictly ate bullfrog tadpoles until it died. I gave it 2 or 3 per feeding. At the time, Petland always had them, so feeding wasn't problem. I think they're very interesting snakes, and the reputation of being difficult to keep isn't deserved. I got the snake when I was 9 or 10 years and didn't really know what I was doing but I was still able to keep it alive. If someone was dedicated to a breeding project with them I'm sure it would be very rewarding.
