Those loveable little Dekayi snakes....

[infernalis]

Dekayi snakes are very common, they remain quite small with even the largest if females seldom exceeding 18 inches long.

Dekayi snakes bear live young rather than laying eggs, they do very well in captivity, and do very well with several specimens in the same enclosure.

Presently we keep 5 Dekayi snakes as pets, They are easy to care for.

Diet in the wild is primarily slugs and small snails, they do also eat earthworms, and in captivity cut up night crawlers make a suitable diet that is readily taken.

As a baby they are tiny...



This baby is a couple months old now, the hemostat is standard size.



Here is a very rare occurance, Dekayi normally do not take pinks.



Here she is again, this is Xena, we have had her 4 years now, and bred her once.
