Very beautiful. I have heard very little of this species and I've never heard of them being kept in captivity.

Are these a rare and/or hard to obtain species?

Have they only recently been imported? In other words can we expect to see more wild caughts coming in?

Since I mostly keep locality specific snakes is there anything more you can tell about their origins, ie. who brought them in, are they really from the locality you mentioned or is that just their natural range and/or where they were exported from?

As far as care, are they similar to Mandarin Rats? Or what?

Do you have any info on acclimating wild caughts and/or what kind of shape, healthwise, they are when imported?

Are they being bred in numbers?

Again very beautiful species. Thanks for posting.
