Thanks to all, the challenge is now can I get them to breed. I probably should be taking precautions with not getting bit but these guys are so calm I am not to worried.
Here is a link to a thread on the South African Reptiles Forum for anyone that wants to see what a bite is like. Seems pretty narly but my wife got stung by two red wasps on the finger this summer and honestly it looked about the same.
Both have now shed and I will snap some new pics this comming weekend as they look much nicer. As they came direct from the bush they had that dusty quality all fresh from the wild snakes seem to have. They continue to do well and while the guys in Africa tell me they can move as fast as our racers they seem to have accepted captivity and I am building them a real nice display viv with lots of crawling room. These guys are going to be spoiled to a point where my Lamprophis might get jealous,![]()
