This girl thinks she's Mike Tyson with all of the jabs she throws! Actually, she's calmed down a fair bit but I still don't trust her.

Here is a picture of what recently was our nastiest colubrid. It is now owned by Katt and Vanan.
It is a "Chinese King Rat snake" aka Stinking Godess
In the picture, the always brave Jonathan Wright, wrangling the beast in my backyard. Standing beside him is Australian zoologist Rick Van Veen holding our female and very tame Taiwan Beauty.

Here are mine, these are of one of our keeled rat snakes, Ptyas carinatus. Truly magnificent but nutcases. They hit 4 meters and can just about nail you in the face from the ground (and can leave some serious scar tissue). I'd love to see them start being bred in the US.

Like pretty much all other 'colubrids' they of course have venom and its packed full of neurotoxins like most species in the Colubrinae family ;-)
Cheers

*drool* Yea I've seen those pics of the P. carinatus. I would love for anyone to breed ANY of the Ptyas!! Dream is to get a P. mucosus but that'll be a while!

Hey Ryan/Vanan
Which species is the one in the pics above? It is truly a stunning snake. As for P. mucousus, they are not hugely impressive, there are much better ones. Keep onto Duncan in Bali for P. carinatus or Sam Li in Hong Kong for other Ptyas (he has some very sharp ones he exports). Also, if you can find anyone importing from Malayasia there are stacks of P. carinatus crawling around there.
Cheers
Bryan

We were trying to get in and clean the cage but the snake (as you can tell) wasn't being terribly cooperative! ;-) Their jaw power is unbelievable, combined with lots of very sharp teeth the prey bleed all over the place. So it was very much a crime scene ;-p
Cheers
Bryan
