Hi everyone, I've been thinking about getting one of the Candoia, but I know very little about them, so I was hoping you all could help me out. Firstly, what is their general despositon? I've only seen a few in the pet shops, and they have always been highly aggressive (more than any snake I've seen). Are they generally more aggressive? Also, I've read that they feed on frogs and lizards in the wild; can they be changed over to rodents, and if not, how easy is it to obtain prekilled lizards? I would like to get a very light colored one, so which species or subspecies usually stay the lightest? I've read several care sheets and websites about them, but I'd rather hear from those out there that own them.
