Hey folks, I will be picking up a group of Liopholidophis lateralis, labelled as Madagascan Water Snakes, this week and was wondering if anybody on here had any experience keeping them. As far as I can tell this is the first time they have been imported to the UK but was wondering if somebody over the pond had seen them before.

From what the importer says, they have not taken rodents or fish yet and it is likely they will need to be fed frogs, at least at first. But this is a pretty little species so I thought I would give them a go and see what I could do with them.

Any advice welcome.
