a highly underrated snake. i go the simple enclosure route: newspaper, hide, and dish. they tolerate cooler temps as well. mine prefer fat fuzzies and hoppers rather than adult mice and they rarely constrict preferring to press the prey against the bottom or sides of the cage. i suppose this behavior could be due to the fact that in the wild they encounter some prey in tunnels or whatnot. gravid female below: photographed and released.
