>>Not counting any morphs just the pure breads which rat snake do you find to be:
>>
I can't comment on anything other then the few North American species I have delt with, owned, captured or handled.
>>1. The most beautiful.
Take a wild guess....LOL. For me the Bairds rat snakes are the most beautiful. The color variences and subtleties as chris mentioned make them hard to beat.
>>
>>2. The most docile.
This would have to go to corn snakes with bairds rat snakes right there with them.
>>
>>3. The least friendly.
In my experience, which is fairly limited beyond black rats and bairdis, has been that the luecistic texas rat snakes have been the least friendly of the rats I have had contact with.
>>
>>4. The most willing feeder.
No doubt the Black Rat Snake. I had gone to get some mice for my snakes and on the way home, saw and caught a black rat. He actually ate a mouse before I traveled four more miles to my house. That's what I call a willing feeder.
>>
>>5. The most picky feeder.
Hmm.. Haven't really had much experience with a particular breed being picky. Just certain individuals. But like I mentioned earlier, my experience is limited.
Black rats,yellow rats, everglades, bairdis, corns and a very short stint with a friends luecistic Texas.
>>
>>6. The easiest to breed.
I would have to go with corns.
I hope Bairdis are as easy...LOL
>>
>>7. The toughest to breed.
wouldn't know!!
>> ----- Corn snakes and rat snakes..No one can have just one.
