Just a simple question. I have a Adult black rat that i am moving into a larger home and was wondering if he would like to have a few small trees.

I'd figure all of your snakes would enjoy to climb on a tree every now and then. Maybe not the Texas rat (I don't know much about them) but your other ones should enjoy it.

I give trees to all of my Rat Snakes and each and every one of them climb on a regular basis. When I checked them last night, 3 of the 7 were in their trees. I think makes a them more interesting to watch. Of course, I don't have any Texas Rats so I don't know how they would take to it. I've got Black Rats, Everglades and a Yellow.
