What do you think about E. Dione?

My dad's thinking about importing a few from Korea...I don't know the laws on this or anything, but what's the temperament of these snakes and how hard are they to care for? Is there a chance of them ever being in high demand? I'm a lizard person, so I'm not too sure about snakes. Thanks.

I received from Terry Cox. 2 males and 1 of the females were produced by a w/c pair from Seol, Korea that Terry has. The other female was produced by Terry but one of the parents is different. They are one of the easiest snakes to have. I enjoy them very much. They are not a big snake, but surprised me how hardy they are. They can eat more than you think without regurging. S. Korean diones seem to like being out during the day in addition to the night. You will get to see them more than most snakes. The ones I have are docile. I don't know what you would consider high demand, but expect to see more of them in collections. Good luck.

sale this year. Terry Cox had a couple good clutches from his and he mentioned he might not breed them this year. I don't know what he was planning to price them at this year. When mine breed, I think I will put them up for $130 - $150 a pair.
