I do quite love him hahaha, i’ve found him to be one of the few snakes even people with the phobia can’t help but love.

Happy to be here!

I wish they could be kept well as captives but alas, they don’t make good captives.

I plan on getting some of the least frightening snakes in my (far) future zoo, to educate people about them and make them hate snakes less.

edit: wanted to add, they might make good captives someday, their main problem is obtaining them captive bred is nearly impossible, never buy wild caught animals unless you intend to bring a species into the hobby through breeding!

There are actually a variety of snakes you can get that don’t eat rodents, especially small ones, you could get an african egg eating snake (warning: it is very hard to find eggs for babies as they’ll eat finch eggs, but adult females can do quail eggs, which are much easier to find) and garter snakes can eat fish, there’s also dekays brown snakes which can subsist off of worms/insects and are very small

Hey be careful saying eye eye the poor guy might be sensitive about his eyes, look at them!

edit: actually, I realized, I thought you were replying to my post giving advice on other snakes for people averse to rodent feeding, but now it’s showing your comment as all on its own and I recognize you were joking haha

They’re arboreal and from central/south america!

I’ve always felt like my default username stems from a lack of creativity, so, thanks!
