I kept a pair of FWCs for a while. Unfortunately, I'm now currently a freshman in college and a dorm room isn't the best place to keep such a snake. I raised a pair from neonates. Great snakes. Pretty much everything Frank said concerning the species is dead on from what I have experienced. By far one of my favorite snakes.
As to the species of Hydrodynastes, I was always under the impression that there weren't any bicinctus in the States. Check out the link below. At least that individual doesn't look like any FWC I've seen. Much more of a tricolor color scheme. Of course, there could be regional variation.

Here are some shots of the pair I used to keep...Sure do miss them.



Best of luck if you do end up getting a FWC.
Regards,
Wes
