Re: Green Snake (CB) Options

They are born red or yellow (looooove the red ones) then go through a color change to green.

Re: Green Snake (CB) Options

GTP's are not a snake you should handle often at all. Most people that I have talked to that have them handle them 3-4 times a year. They do tend to be a bit faster to bite than some snakes and their bite doesn't hurt but it will draw a good amount of blood most times. Their teeth are like little razors. If you want a snake you can handle a GTP is not for you. It is a display animal more than anything else. A lot of GTP's will calm down once they are fully done with their color change and some don't.

I have not yet gotten bitten. I can read my GTP very well and I know when I need to let him be. Mine is still in its yellow phase about 1/2 way to green. I have yet to take him out or handle him at all. I have seen 2 others get bitten and it really seemed like nothing but some blood.. I was told it doesn't hurt as long as you don't pull back!

Re: Green Snake (CB) Options

ok, I'll definately have to brew on that. no plans for my "green snake" yet. There are a couple corn morhs I would like and a piebald BP first, so I have lots of time to think this through!

So what are the care requirements and temperment for the Emerald Tree Boa??

Yup. That's a baby green tree python. They aren't green as babies. They are yellow or red. Cool eh?

Re: Green Snake (CB) Options

I guess it would depend how often they are inclined to use those!!!! If they keep them nicely tucked away until feeding time, we'll get along just fine!!
