King Rat or Keeled Rat, anyone?
Elaphe carinata or Ptyas carinatus to be more specific.
Has anyone here ever kept either? I love the big colubrids. These are two that I'd be very interested in keeping in the future. With my indigo taking up a large portion of my "reptile room", I don't currently have room for anything else that requires a lot of space. But, someday I will. I want a HUGE colubrid. Unfortunately, I don't think my indigo is going to reach record size. Hopefully, he'll get up over 7' eventually though. But, a large display with a 12' P. carinatus would be awesome.
Anyway, just wondered if anybody here had any experience with them.
