I wish they grey like taiwans do.. LOL. the largest of my girls is around 7ft right now, and a little over a year and a half old.. All chowing on large/jumbo rats.. still trying to find a male though.. grrrr.. And yes, I plan on handling them frequently. Nothing stays hyper for long in my collection.. My taiwans you can literally grab their heads, bonk em on the nose, do whatever to them without them so much as pulling away from you.. Very VERY friendly snakes, and some of my favorites out of everything I have :) I expect these ridleyi to be the same way... (some of my favorites)


:I have 1.1 Ridleyi that are feeding on medium F/T mice and they are only a year and a half old. I am sure you are happy now but you will be even happier when you see how fast they grow. They seem to be a very hardy species when kept in the right conditions. Also take my advice and keep handling them!!! GREAT PICS!!! Best of luck to you with this pair I know I enjoy mine.
