Larry Keller has a whole article (6 pages with photos) completely on radiated rats. Since he's a very experienced breeder I'd definitely pick that article up. By the way the November edition is already out.

If you go to my care sheet page at
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/john.gamesby/snakes.html
and scole down i is the second care sheet down.
These are great snakes and nopt as bad as they are supposed to be. If you get CB hatchlings or yearlings they tame up very well. I have had imprted snakes that were very snappy and tamed up with handeling. The impoted ones would revert to aggressive if they were not handled often.
If I can be of any more help please get in touch.
