Anyone else know of anyone besides Gregg Feaster and Ophidiophile (David Tracer) who works with these (in the U.S.)?
This is a male, and BOY is he spirited! Very hardy snakes...don't have to worry about ventilation nearly as much as the Arizona (S. t. intermedia) types. In fact, they seem to really benefit from an occasional misting. I'd like to see some more of these here in the States...in particular, captive-bred babies. Schulz wrote that they were among the easiest of the triaspis to breed. They're a bit more common in European collections, but they are pretty uncommon here.
They really have a lovely copper brown color as adults. Some adults are solid copper with no trace of pattern. They're a very handsome snake.
Thanks for looking!
