    Rhinoceros ratsnake - a Rhynchophis boulengeri bite

    I've got one of these beauties

    Mines a few years old and around 3' long but he's as soft as any Royal Python , very slow moving and gentle and NEVER tried to bite or strike or anything , he takes warmed up mice off tongs and that's the only time he opens his mouth

    They're nonvenomous anyway and not even rear- fanged either as many seem to think so I wouldn't worry at all .

    The only problem I can see is the one you've highlighted , feeding two snakes in the same Viv .

    Makes sense to get one out ( the calmest most sedate one ) and feed it in a separate tub . Leave them apart for an hour or so to let the feeding instinct subside .
