They are pretty much like other ribbon snakes, normally eat well but do not always tame down, though they might depending on age...You could keep a pair in a 20 gallon tank probably(depending on the size of the tank)...but I suggest something larger if you HAVE to keep them together. IMO it is best to keep all snakes in seperate cages unless they are breeding. They are rather prolific and will breed well if cooled, but depending on the area they are from they might not even need to be cooled. I think a WC female a friend had gave birth to ~25 offspring in one batch. Andy
