Hello, I am considering getting a Dione Rat Snake. I had one a few years ago, unfortunately this individual parished in a house fire in May 02.
I am not positive, and that is why I am checking up, but I believe that you keep them pretty much like corns. I did a search on them, and found a good bit of discussion on them, and size etc.. but not much care info.
What temperature range do they preffer?
Thats pretty much it.. I appreciate any help you can offer.

This snakes need 25-28C and medium humidity. Feeding object must be not big, because they often regurgitate it. I feed my dione with small mouse.
E. dione have a big potential and they, like corns, have some of very interesting color and patterns variations (see fotos).
