WC Mandarin ratsnakes

ocelot Feb 09, 2003 10:01 PM

I am looking for info or advice on best methods to acclimate WC mandarin
ratsnakes. I know that a lot of people have tried unsucccessfully to raise and
breed these. I have already been told not to try it and that is not the advice I am
looking for. Have any of you ever had success with this? If so, what type of cage setup? What
temperature, best parasite treatment, best breeding methods etc...?

Thanks
John

I know you dont want to hear it but sorry. DONT DO IT!
If no other reason than for the snakes sake (which is a good one).

The advice you have recieved is good advice.
Save up and buy some CB animals, you really don't need a couple
of dead mandarins, cos that is pretty much what you will end up with.
