About 6 months ago, I got my King Ratsnake and I have to say the size gain and color change has been amazing. She has changed from this (40g




To This (100g)




The whole journey with this amazing animal has bee like no other, When i first considered getting her alot of people cautioned my against it because they are supposed to get large and aggresive. My girl has such a personality. During shed she is crazy but on feeding day she will take fuzzies right off the tongs. On most days she will climb into my hand and I will put her on my bed and she will sit and sun herself where the sun hits my bed at about noon. She is an amazing animal that is why I am announcing that I am now thinking about getting her a Hubby from Amy Zerkle. I may go to the Cleveland show in November for my Birthday and I think I may get her a Hubby. I am working on building an 8 foot by 2 foot cage and putting a divider in it so that her Hubby and her can have a nice cozy living quarter. I am also moving all of the snakes out of my bed room so I will have a huge empty wall so why not fill it in with a King Ratsnake
