: Hi. Like I said in an earlier post, I am into boids and buying a Rat Snake will be a first for me. What makes a White Oaks Rat snake any better or worst than other Grey Rat Snakes? How did they get the name "White Oaks"? Is their care any different from other Rat Snakes? (a friend of mine has a yellow rat snake) Is it true that White Oaks Rat Snakes love to climb? Any info I can get would be great. I have lots of snake books, but none of them say anything specifically about White Oaks Rat Snakes. Most of my books are boid related anyways. Thanks!

the only difference is that white oaks are lighter in overall color than a 'normal' gray rat. mine for example has quite a bit of white edging on it, giving her that lighter look. the grays are also not as dark as some that are found within their range. their care is the same as any other rat snake and yes, they are very adept at climbing. hope this helps.
