AHHH... ok, my bad - there I go assuming again. lol

I will add they are a great snake - to give you an idea as to the growth rate - I got mine as a yearling at 18", kept in a 10 gallon for the first year, just 2 months ago (@ 1 year after I got him) I switched him from a 10 gallon to a 55 gallon tank. He is now estimated somewhere around 2 1/2 to 3 ft, he could have stayed in the 10 gallon, but he started look cramped so I moved him over.

I'd imagining he'll grow another foot or two within the next year and another foot or two the year after that (hopefully).

:I don't have one, but I was thinking of getting one. I just wanted to know more about them before I decided if I should or not. I don't have any plans to breed them, I was just wondering how fast they grow since they don't eat as much as other colubrids.
