| Anyone here keep them. Recently while working i been dealing with some house snakes and they got my eye big time.
I want to get into them as their easy to breed and incubate at room temp. Not to mention can breed and lay eggs up to 3 times a year.
Just want some feed back on those that keep them. |

| Their about 10" when hatched and lil thicker. But theres exception to every rule.
I am going to set up 16 or 24 oz containers with 2" piece of PVC for water. Use 1/16 drill bit for holes and be set. They only need temps of 80 and incubate same temp. |

| I love these little guys, but can't seem to find any in my area.  I am hoping that with the Wasatch Reptile Expo coming in October, I might find a pair. Keep your fingers crossed for me!  |

| house snakes are actually pretty calm. I deal with all the adults and they are very laid back. The male albino is bad ass. |
