Q: Sonora[n] whipsnake (Masticophis bilineatus)

Subject:

Comments:
: Many, many years ago I briefly had a Sonora[n] whipsnake (Masticophis bilineatus). Unfortunately I lost this spectacularly beautiful, gentle giant (nearly 7'!) shortly after I received it to some undiagnosed health problem. : A few questions, in case anyone knows: Is is common for these snakes (especially wild caught) to be lap-dog tame, or was this behavior (as I suspect) more likely related to the animal's poor health or old age? Other masticophis I've kept have been universally nervous and nasty. : Is it common for these snakes to grow so large, or was this a freak? Does anyone know where I might obtain one (or more), since as far as I know, *nobody* breeds these snakes? : -RM
