Introduce a new animal to captive breeding

[Bogertophis]

Coachwhips is a great choice I didn't even think of those. We have them around here and I've seen a few definitely a gorgeous snake.

They may be a "great choice" for us, but not for the coachwhips themselves. They're VERY active snakes that don't do well in captivity, & even in a large cage there's no
comparison to the great open spaces & natural sunshine outdoors. (I've had one for a while...it had been turned over to me from someone no longer wanting it.) While
a few dedicated keepers with a spare room (for a walk-in habitat for the snake!) may do alright, I'd HATE to see these sold as pets, because very few people will do right
by them. That's MY first consideration, not how pretty the snake looks as someone's possession.
