First time snake owner needs help

Posted by Stacey Goodman on May 22, 2002 at 12:16:45:

My fiance caught a young yellow rat snake last evening.(He thinks thats what it is) I know they are constrictors, but thats about it. What want to know is how big do they get, are they safe to have as pets when they are full grown, what do they prefer to eat, do they need anything special in there terarium, and anything else I may have missed. Thank you for all your help. I like the little guy, and want to make sure I take good care of him. Thank you!
