Didn't Ophidiophile ID these as Zaocys dhumnades during one of your threads just a few weeks ago?
I have no reason to doubt that ID.
I believe the frog-scenting technique is the way to start.
Will you share were you got these and if there are anymore?
Thanks,
Chris

That is the species that was listed. They are a close relative to Ptyas (possibly the same genus-according to some sources). I know one person who got one but it died without feeding.

I'm not familiar with the care of this species, but I saw those hatchlings feeding on live newborn mice over there.
