Well, insofar as cage size, you'll need at least a 20 gallon when it's an adult, at which point it'll be between 5 and 7 feet. I would recommend a 29, if for no other reason than that you can set it up to look cooler, as well as being more interesting for your snake in terms of climbing (they really like to climb), and space to stretch out. Temperament varies from snake to snake - as do most things - but the general consensus seems to be that Texas rats are a little more irritable. I believe - don't quote me on this - that leucistic black rats are more expensive than leucistic Texas rats, which may or may not have something to do with the fact that there are lots of leucistic Texas rats that have this weird "bug eyed" look, that apparently (according to some recent posts) has to do with inbreeding.
