I have worked exclusevely with W/C through the years. C/B is definitly the best choice-lack of parasites and less feeding problems.



The W/C can be very difficult to get to feed and that in it's self is reason to back off.



When you do get one I find that a high cage with branches is a big plus and daily mistings are enjoyed.



To my experience these are sight hunters and prefer movement in their food so a long set of tongs, or placing a living mouse in the tank works best.



Temps seem to be less of an issue as I have kept them anywhere from the High seventies to the low ninties without problems.



They are definitly a very under appreciated snake.



Good luck,



Frank
