bit narky, but beautiful all the same.

Never seen one in the flesh, but they are gorgeous in pics. Haven't heard of anyone keeping these for a long time :)

I've never seen one before but it's a nice animal. Dude, you gota get us some clearer pics. I'm drooling over some of these images but these animals are so photogenic it's a shame.

So fill us less educated peoples in on what these guys are like to keep

well despite this gals name she doesnt like climbing, i had her in a 2foot high viv and she didnt climb, then i had to have her temporarily in a 2x1.5x2 exo terra (only for about 3-4 weeks mind) and decided to give her some places to climb there and she didnt either! so now i just have her in a homemade 4x2x1 viv heated by a 150x ceramic on a dimmer stat (guarded of course)
she is not tame, and will bite in you try to take her out. when out, she is less likley to bite, but WILL musk after a few mins, so i try to keep handling frequent but short, when i hear that gurgling sound inside her i quickly get her inside the viv or the holding tub if her viv is being cleaned.

I'm not sure whats worse sometimes, musking or being bitten but then I'd have canneries if something that size was biting me so I think on this occasion I'd opt for musking (can you tell yet that I'm the resident wuss when it comes to big snakes lol )

i've had both, i'll take the bite over the musk lol
