Asian Rats again
OK so i already asked some questions about blues and Taiwanese and got some great responses. I am trying to decide between cave dwelling ratsnakes or the blue/Taiwan. Can anyone tell me the average size on the cave dwellers, what they recommend etc. Thank all in advance.
"According to a young expert snake keeper Bald pythons can grow to 8 feet" lol

Re: Asian Rats again
Cave beauties don't get quite as big as Taiwans or blues but they are still one of the bigger beauties. Average adults are around 7-8 ft, and largest I have heard of was a little over 9 ft except for a few odd claims of near 10 ft with no proof. Caves will generally be the most expensive, followed by blues then Taiwans. IMO Taiwan would probably be the best to start with, but as long as you know what you are buying and you know the potential of an adult it really depends on which color you like. I say Taiwan because they tend to be a little less nippy than caves or blues overall.
Taiwan - 7-10 ft, bulky, usually most docile, fast, cheapest
blue - 8-11 ft, thinner, can be nippy, fast, moderate price
cave - usually around 6.5-9 ft, more bulky than blues as adults, can be nippy, fast, more expensive
If you are prepared and money is not a problem then go with whichever one you thinks looks the coolest.
