They do love to climb a bit, and usually love to hang out in the open. They watch intently what everyone is doing around them. They seem almost intelligent. They get quite big and heavy bodied for a Ratsnake. They are curious and very handleable, up for anything !! They are the closest to a "buddy" you can get in a snake, imho They don't usually hide. They will make good use of branches and decorations

A very fun, uncomplicated display snake, one you can also enjoy outside of its cage
SWEET Very good article! I hadnt heard anything about these guys before but successfully bred the TX Rat Snakes for years altho their temperment is not very snakekeeper freindly to say the least..

Im stoked & I guess now I'll start my search for one or maybe a pair of these guys, woohoo! Thx again for everyones feedback & a big high five to you Zina..

Anyone around here selling these?
