I hope two of my hondurans are sold this week,so I can breed by tangerines and hopefully my tri-color this time,dont worry about the can I was in a hurry when I found it,I had to give it water and when I got back a water bowl was placed in the cage,I believe Nelsons should get 4 to 5 ft long and they are a thick adult snake

my tangerines are a hypomelanistic breed,one of the parents were a albino , and when I crossed my tangerines I got 2 ghost, a bi and a standard tangerine (hypo)


all my babies are now in 10 gallon tanks now

I was planning on putting one in an enclosure that is 40" x 20" x 12". It is roughly 40 gallons and has 5.5 feet of floor space. Would that work for a female? I don’t have any experience with snakes so would this be ok for a starter?

if you are getting a hatchling or any honduran under a year,you can keep in a 10 gallon tank.I will keep mine in a 10 gallon tank til they get about 3 ft.they like the confined space


my male is in a 30 gal terrarium,my tangerine female is in a 30 and she is 5 1/2 ft,my tri is in a 55 gal and she is almost 6 ft,but they all have small hide spots.


I wouldn’t put a small milk in a big cage,you might have a hard time feeding because you have to find and chase it to one end of the tank and it will get stressed,so a small tank is better I think,wal-mart has 10 gallons for 10 bucks,and I made my own lid

Alligater, is that you sitting in front of the tank in the second pic? If so, you’re looking a little pale. lol
From misce, who is hoping you’ll show up in Daytona one of these years so we can meet in person.
