Species Spotlight- Mandarin Rat Snakes

[@Blue_Lugia]

One of my dream snakes! ❤

I have friends who breed them and they all say they survive better in more humid environments.

Do they only get big to eat mice or will they eat rats too ? And do they stay slender ? What gets bigger makes or female? How many baby's they have and do they hatch eggs or live birth ? How much do they cost in where can I buy ?

[@junchan_3200]

@@germaineparham-kk8rr they could eat smaller rat and stay slender, the female is bigger and lay eggs, but I don’t really know how big the clutch or how much it sells. Maybe u could check morph market or such to look for breeders ?

​@@junchan_3200so small rats , medium rats similar to King snakes, corn snakes and Honduran milk snakes.

[@junchan_3200]

@@Germaineparham142 I don’t think they can be as big as some big female kings or Honduran rats but a corn snake could be a good comparison. I believe they could handle medium rats as adults.

Amazing species. I cut off heat at 75F

[@Germaineparham142]

I thought these was venom like tiger snakes ? But are these similar size black rats , everglades , green rat ? Also large king snakes like California and hondurian milksnakes get large they require 55-60 gallon tanks so will a 75 gallon be great for these ? That should be able to keep snakes 5-7ft range

[@kevinconnors7939]

Basking light gets to 79 or so in the day cycle. Gets cooler at night

[@JzsReptiles]

Since I recorded this I have a small group now and I keep the room at no higher than 83 with good night drops and they’re all growing like weeds

[@umthalaflipflop]

What size enclosure do u recommend

[@JzsReptiles]

At least 3x2. More is always good but remember they like to hide so plenty of cover is needed

[@Germaineparham142]

75 gallon tank?​@@JzsReptiles

[@JzsReptiles]

@@Germaineparham142 would be fine with lots of cover

[@germaineparham-kk8rr]

So these species is not pythons or boas but they are similar size etc to children's python, rosy boa,rubber boa . But these guys are just corn and king snake body build . I love the larger rat snake black rat, tiger rat and Texas rat .
