Re: Anybody here keep Mandarin Rat snakes (Elaphe mandarina)?

I know the history of mine. They are CBB 4 generations in. The guy I got them from had had them for sale since August, and he needed the room back, so he gave me a good deal. I met up with him to pick them up and I must say they are clean and beautiful. I think I am going to move them into the next room over which never gets above 75 even during the day. I don't want to take chances since my snake room does get to about 80 some days. It's cooler for the winter period, but still, I want my mandarins to thrive. I don't do WC snakes. I had two WC Spilotes and neither made it for me, despite vet visits and careful care. I prefer to stick with CBB as the snakes are less stressed and I know where they came from and history, etc. I also only buy now from a few breeders that I trust, unless it's something I can get history on and go look at before committing.
