Much like boomslangs, tiger rats have forward-set eyes, and will weave their head back and forth to triangulate depth for a more accurate strike. I LOVE mine...she's my favorite non-venomous snake to work with.

How big of an enclosure would you need to provide for an adult?(Not the minimum, something more ideal).

Also if I remember correctly Tiger rat snakes are not really "rat snakes" but more closely related to indigos and cribos?

I wrote something about the enclosure size in post #11. As I said, the bigger the better, an adult Spilotes will use all space it gets.

Here are some additional information and pictures of my enclosure
