I currently own all the species you listed except the Black Rats. I very recently got the Tiawans. If you are realy looking for something different than what you already got, I'de get the Tiawan Beauties. The asian species realy are different. Make sure you research them a little! Some of them have little different requirements, but they aren't too hard. They get big and they grow fast! The newborn babys can be as thick as a fat pencil. Mine are eating large fuzzys.
The Mexican Blacks are nice, but not huge. Mine are over a year old and not terribly huge. Sweet little Kings. They are very nice animals.
I love my Corns too! You'lle just have to decide what you want!

Currently all I have are american cloubrids, kings, corns, and a watersnake, I want to get a large snake , but not a boa or python. Then I discovered asian rats. Is the taiwan a good beginner large colubrid? I would most likely put it in a 55 gallon it's whole life, is that ok? I'm going to a herp show and here is what I want: another corn, mecican black king, taiwan beauty, and 2 black rats. I need to pick one. what do like best?
