RE: Korean Rat (E. anomala) question

I have a pair of Koreans that I bred for the first time this year. I actually like the color better than Russians. Mine are bright yellow with shades of brown and grey mixed in. They are very flighty, but have never tried to bite. I haven't seen Russians around much recently.

By the way, taxonomically they used to be subspecies of each other:

Russian ratsnake (Elaphe schrenki schrenki)
Korean ratsnake (Elaphe schrenki anomala)

Now they have been split into separate species:

Russian ratsnake (Elaphe schrenki)
Korean ratsnake (Elaphe anomala)
