Hi
Claus Ilsøe and I have agreed on the following:
1:A snake shoudn`t only be beautiful. It must also present itself to the viewers. To fill both staments we can think of the following: Elaphe frenata, Gonyosoma oxycephala and Elaphe carinata.
2. No doubt in our minds Schrencki
3. After some debat, we found that in our collections, we have one honest species. (It bites every time even after 21 years in captivity) Zamenis longissimus
4. We have 2: Pantherophis vulpinus gloydi and Elaphe schrencki
5. This one is easy. Zamenis hohenackeri. If we are lucky they will eat 3 months in a year.
6. Also easy Pantherophis obsoletus
7. This one is more difficult It depends on the stock you are working with. The ones that really have given us gray hairs are Centricolis triaspis mutabiles and Elaphe quatuorlineata
This was actually some interesting questions, that needed some thinking. Not many people has been working with many animals of all these species, and what can be easy for one is difficult for another.
Best wishes
