I have a 5 ft. female I bought about 4 yrs. ago.She is a sweety but,she has bit me a few times due to her feeding response!I've thought about breeding her but,just haven't found a male partner that looks like her.She was sold as c/b and I have no reason to believe otherwise.The ones I usually see offered for sale are imported and have a brownish overcast to their pattern,mine is black and white with some yellowish coloration.I've found their care to be fairly typical to any N/A colubrid.

Wish I could, but they are now considered hots in FL, and the permit is more than I want to deal with.

We just got 2 madagascar giants and 2 "lemons". The giants definately seem calmer than the lemons. Which is what I've read elsewhere. We are assuming they are all WC but all have ate since we got them.

Speckled (gaeyi)
Blond phase (modestus)
Giants (madagascaneriensis)Crap spelling!!!!
