    Whoever said red runners climb is wrong.

    Only the green banana Roaches can climb or fly.

    Introducing....

    Racers are a bad snake to introduce someone who is afraid of snakes to anyway. Not very good ambassadors. To be honest that behavior was what I was expecting when I opened up my new snakes container for the first time. It was unnerving when it behaved calmly, but minor colds do that even to...

    Introducing....

    Funny thing is, if you do something like garden they will sometimes watch what your doing, the adult racer I've pictured was always fascinated when I was gardening. As long as I kept a respectful two foot distance, she was quite happy to observe confidently. They can be quite curious animals

    Introducing....

    If given the option they will run, at over 10 miles per hour, they are the fastest snake in the US. Corner one, and you have a fight on your hands until it can escape

    Introducing....

    Curious snakes, but absolutely cantankerous if their personal space is violated, much like those chameleons everyone loves. Here's mine watching the bird, curious snakes indeed. It makes me confident the snake will kick it's infection, as a critically ill animal would not be acting in this...

    Introducing....

    I wanted to call him Satan, but his current temperament doesn't lend itself to the name, though it could be due to the mild case of the "sniffles" a minor respiratory infection that he came with. It is a black racer, renowned for their foul attitudes. I intend to have him as a display animal...

    I summon the @jamest0o0 @Hisserdude Start with red runners, and ivory heads for new feeders.

    Uh, oh....

    Snakes seem to be tactile animals, they love the feeling of being surrounded by structure. Empty 12 pack cases were some of the favorite hides for my very large snakes, despite having better options. You'd be amazed at just what they will squeeze themselves into. As for the wild, I almost...

    My snake feeding thread.

    Here's video of me hand feeding the female.

    Uh, oh....

    Well minor update, apparently the male thought his upgraded digs and new location were too much and he went off feed, I can't emphasize this enough a lot of snakes get really weirded out if they feel their enclosure is too large, so I've down graded him to a smaller cage and moved him back to...

    Uh, oh....

    There are rough greens if you want insect eaters. https://www.lllreptile.com/products/31033-rough-green-snakes They are WC of course, but if you handle chameleons, you should be good.

    Uh, oh....

    Even as babies, not a single threat posture. Black rats are some of the friendliest.

    Uh, oh....

    Good maybe you get one. Heres the female, getting ready to shed, she's also sleeping. Just out cold.

    Uh, oh....

    Well he's now in his temporary cage, it should be adequate for several months, snakes like small cages. He's currently testing it for weaknesses, as snakes like to do.

    Uh, oh....

    Her brother is pretty too. He's getting a larger setup soon, but it's gonna be awhile before he gets a cage like his sister. Luckily snakes aren't overly fussy.

    My snake feeding thread.

    The male is absolutely mental when it comes to food. They both eat so fast it's very difficult to photograph both when they are eating.

    Lubber or painted grasshopper. Cool pets, toxic feeders.
