Hi All!

I just got an adult couple of Elaphe Davidi and a female of 2 years old. Very happy with them! Hopefully I will breed them this year.

Hope you will like them!

The female of two years old:

Those are very nice. How are their temprements and how big are your adults. Don't know much about these except they are from ROK and China. Nice pickup.

Hi,

Their temperaments are very calm and docile.

For comparisson:
My elaphe dione in hibernation are more aggresive then these davidi ...

My adults are somewhat over 1 meter.

Very happy with them!

Best regards,
Gidi

More laid back than Elaphe dione - is that even possible *giggles*

You know I love them Gidi - Big Congrats, and good luck with breeding them (I say that for purely selfish reasons, because I want some) hahaha XxX

Greetings, Gidi and Sue. Long time no talk...

I would like some of those too. Please send some to the U. S.

I've been looking for them for several yrs now. Hopefully, this species will get established in the hobby now.

Gidi, would you mind telling me who your source was? (tmcox@ratsnakehaven.com)

Best to you both....Terry

OMG!!! OMG!!! OMG!!!

Haven't been here for a while, almost missed the post of the century. I thought it couldn't possibly get better than the Maculophis bellus you posted earlier. Wrong again.

Please do drop me a line should you ever breed them.

Avé,

Herman.
