Right now, my snake of obession is the Dharman Ratsnake [Ptyas mucosa, Ptyas korros], unfortunately no one seems to sell them in the pet trade. If you're unfamiliar with them, they are a large [10 ft. plus] colubrid that can be found all throughout the region of the Indian subcontinent. They're drab brownish in color and are often mistaken for cobras. Apparently very pugnacious too. *Sigh*, just wish some one would import some. ----- Matt Campbell
