i built this cage in order to observe and try to understand some of a trans-pecos ratsnakes natural behaviors. how could i observe ant type of natural hunting styles if he were offered pre-killed food? i'll probably never know if what i observe in this cage even closely resembles natural, wild behavior. but, hey it's much more interesting than the way i keep the majority of my snakes in sweater boxes, and i just may learn a few things along the way. kevin
