ETB's first Hi-Res Pics

Here are some pics of my ETB on a Hi-Res camera. The ol' iPhone never quite captures everything.

Stunning snake! I hear they are hard to keep though... are they harder to keep than GTP's?

Re: ETB's first Hi-Res Pics

From what I've heard, no they aren't harder than GTPs but I own neither, so can't say personally.

That's what I thought, it's just that a while back I heard ETB's don't do well in captivity. It may just be a wild caught thing in that case.

This little one is a CB and I'd say it's been relatively easy to care for. I've had it two months and haven't had any problems. I did a ton of research before I got it. If you just follow the advice of experienced keepers and make small adjustments based on the snakes behavior everything else falls into place. It sleeps in tight coils, eats well and handles just fine during the day. Probably don't wanna put your hand too far in there at night, it's head kinda turns into a heat seeking missile. I only mist twice a day and clean the cage every few weeks. I'd encourage anyone who wants one to just do your homework and don't let anyone discourage you if you have a fair amount of snake keeping experience.
