Here's an ancient pic of that wild caught one when I first got him. This has got to be back around 1985. Damn I'm getting old. I bought this guy has an "asian" rat snake in some pet store. Those were the days when pet shops were the only source for animals. Despite the negatives, I find these to be extremely interesting snakes, especially when you no longer get crapped on. The biting I can deal with. Oh, don't count on your corn snake getting 6' long. It happens but it would have to be considered a rarity. Biggest one I've ever seen/owned was a wild caught who was around 5.5' long and probably very old. 4-4.5' would be more like it. Good luck with the radiated, they are really cool looking as adults. Don.
