I see western offered alot and everyone I have talked to has said they were easy, delightfull captives. However, when compareing color and pattern, to me the eastern are hard to beat. I'm very partial to them.

As for reputable breeders, I ment just that. Im not looking for WC animals that many reptile brokers like to sell. I guess Im looking to see if any forums members may have some idea as to a good source, even private breeders who may have had sucsess.

I have also thought about southerns but know little to nothing about them.

Im not too concerned about getting babies to switch. I have alot of experince with neonate arboreal vipers/pitvipers and belive you me, they are as hard as any snake to switch over to rodents. However, some species just wont make the switch like coral snakes, king cobras (though a good number of folks have managed)and some other more exotic species. I guess Im just wondering if its near imposible or if i would have a good chance.
