Beautful animals! I wish that racers were common here in Northern California. They seem very elusive, and I've seen only four, including DORS, in about ten years. I kept one; a neonate which feeds voraciously on crickets. Here we have the western species, Coluber mormon, but they are just as beautful as the Eastern Yellow bellied. I need to find another one and try to breed them.
Racers are highly underrated.
