Hi, I was live in Kunming, China for 18 years, and it is the homeland for chinese false cobra. I saw a lots and actually caught some in the wild too. They are easy to keep but since they only eat amphibians you need to be careful for the parasite problem. I would recommend you feed them with live frogs instead of frog leg because w.c false cobras tend not to accept dead food; and if possible, you may want to try some water frogs instead of tree frogs cause in the wild tree frogs are not in their feeder list. Also you may try some small toads, they will eat them too. For temperature, 77 at day, and 68 at night will be good. The humility you offer works. Hopes these help you.
