I have an Aru chondro that is super mellow, easy to handle, feeds super easy on frozen / thawed and poses for photos better than any other snake that I have owned. He is an amazing pet and display animal! My Jade line chondro is also mellow, gorgeous and easy to feed frozen / thawed, but she is an oddball that usually prefers curling up on the floor of her cage to perching. Oh well! Still a joy to have in My collection! Mine are both captive bred, and I think that is an important thing to look for in whichever species you choose.
