I have 2 snakes in my room now and i wanna get rid of one cause i dont want to snakes in my room. I wanna sell my MALE Ruthveni kingsnake thats about 12inches. How much can i sell him for? Will pet stores buy him...Also if i was to put him in my patio, would that be to hot or no. I live in Florida. Thaknks

He's gorgeous, are you sure you don't want him?
I don't know how much ruthveni normally cost, but I know albino's are ussually several hundred dollars. Do you know whether he is hetorozygous for albinoism?

What is wrong with having two snakes in your room?

Well ive been doin some thinking and i decided not to get rid of him. Im gonna keep him and my honduran milk. My ruthveni is het for albino by the way.

P.S. I use aspen for substrate, and was wondering if my room will start to smell with 2 snakes in it?

Actually, fresh aspen substrate provides a rather agreeable aroma. It will become somewhat less agreeable once the snakes poop on it, and MUCH less agreeable if a dead mouse is left in it. (Actually, a dead mouse, if left more than a few hours, will likely require fumigation of the premises, regardless of what substrate is involved.)

But overall, I don't think the combo of aspen bedding and two snakes will create a significant odor problem.

You know, I keep 75 snakes in one room and very seldom have a stinky snake room unless there has been an occasional regurgitation. I do not use aspen I just use newspaper as a substrate. If you clean routinely there is no problem.

I just hope your Honduran milk has a better temperment than mine. He probably will, mine was barely handled as a baby. But when they're nasty, they can be pretty nasty!... P.S. I will happily trade you my Honduran for your Ruthven's .

Can you post a pic of your honduran?
