    Re: Elsa - Vietnamese Blue Beauty Snake...!!!!!

    Tall cages with branches are used & greatly appreciated. These are "rat" snakes but more like racers- they don't sit still much- fun to watch, but not mean, IMO.

    They're only "nasty" for those who fail to grasp their essential nature- don't over-restrain them. Enthusiastic eaters too. Like most snakes, it greatly helps to get

    them when young & handle them now & then. A wild-caught wouldn't be fun... But captive-bred like the ones I had, very few nips & only from hatchlings.

    (I only had the gold/black version, Taiwan Beauty, not the blue Vietnamese version, but I think they're very similar?)

    BTW, this is the perfect snake to convert a large piece of wood furniture for an impressive display & a happy snake with room to move
    and bask.

    Thank you this is great and much appreciated. From what I understand of the snakes you mention they all come from a similar family with somewhat similar behaviors but obviously vary in size and xolor
    and pattern and temperament a bit.

    Thats not a bad idea in regards to the furniture piece. We should have a dumpster diving furniture build. Lol

    i can’t lie I was about to post a thread on garbage picking for the hobby. My last two snake stands we’re neighbors pieces of furniture they were about to trash. Lucky for me my neighbors have good taste !!
