Glenn,

Glad to see you back on this forum again! Are you still breeding Mandarin ratsnakes from Sichuan Province? I remember that you had spectacular specimens. By the way, is that Green Bush ratsnake missing the tip from it's tail?

Thanks Bert! Unfortunately no longer working with the mandarina. Maybe someday again. Yes I noticed that as well while I was taking the pics. It was the remaining scale from a shed that ocurred the day before.

I had prasina before but did not wait until breeding size before I sold them. This will be my first attempt to breed this species. I hope I have some luck with me.

regards,
Glenn

Glenn,

Are there any other species of ratsnake you're working with at the moment? I remember that next to the Mandarin ratsnakes, you were working with Vietnamese Longnose ratsnakes and Chinese Beauty ratsnakes. I have a male Mandarin ratsnake from 2004 from North-Vietnamese origin and a male Broad-Banded Red Bamboo ratsnake from this year from Malaysian origin (Cameron Highlands, Pahang). Needless to say, I'm planning on getting a female specimen from both species in the near future. Good luck with the Green Bush ratsnakes.

Regards,

Bert

Very nice Glenn. I'm afraid I have a few years to go on mine. Randy

The colours of prasina are just gorgeous! I live in Canada and have yet to hear about anyone owning these Ratsnakes, but I'm even dissapointed to rarely see them available in the States. What is their attitude like?

Hi the ones I have a very mellow and have not attempted to bite me yet. I love the blues eyes. I am hoping to have some success this year in breeding them.
