Texas long-nosed snakes

KenyanSandboa12 Jan 15, 2005 08:45 PM

Hi, i saw a picture of one of these beautiful snakes and i just had to have one. I would like to know the proper care of one. Like, tank size, substrate needs, etc. Also i would like to know where i can get one, i'm in texas, just the wrong part. So i can't catch one. So if anyone will sell me one email me at CrittersMailToo@aol.com

They are great looking arent they. they come in 2 color types. I never had one but have seen them in reptile shows. I read tho some can be tricky eaters and prefer lizards.
They offer them in classifieds but www.LLLREPTILE.com has them here and there as does www.gherp.com but make sure its eating.
very pretty snakes.

Thanks, i'll look there. I have a great supply of ground skinks and anoles around so finding something to feed shouldn't be a problem.
