I've cut down on my colony but i've kept many pairs; as babies they're unique in that they do a bit of a "reverse crawl" when nervous. They are known for temporary hunger strikes and that seems to vary on the individual. Some stop feeding at the hint of a season change while others never refuse a meal. Either way, they know what's best for them and they have all been 100% healthy.

Mine have always been tame as adults and the colors range from dark green to blueish (is that a word?)to various grey/green colors.

Email me anytime if you have specific questions about their husbandry.

Cheers,

Tom

Thanks Tom...I think...I'm trying really hard NOT to get this snake (time, money, space, etc.), but I think they're beautiful, and now that I'm hearing that they're relatively easy to care for and everyone who has them loves them, I'm finding it REALLY hard to resist...

I just e-mailed the seller to see if he had any left..if he does, and if I get one, I may take you up on your kind offer of help...thanks again...
