I will have one... eventually... Meg, you have some very interesting snakes, and this one is no exception!

Nanci: They are nocturnal hunters so they require the cat pupils and larger eyes to find their prey in dense rain forest. The head is shaped like that because their jaws are fixed in place unlike other snakes. This allows them to pull snails from the shell like this:
I really liked the head shot. His eyes are a bit different looking from Stubby's. His look like they have lightning in them! Here's one that shows her eyes. They are a little browner than his. Not as good a picture of her eyes as his though.

My sister named him, I didn't. Sluggo the snail eater...or in this case, the slug eater. I hardly feed snails anymore because they have to be live and it's expensive getting them. I don't have snails around my property or I'd feed them. My friends all know to be on the lookout for slugs and to freeze them when they find them. I will evenutally get around to trying the canned snails on them and see if they'll eat those. it would make it a lot easier to get them out in the pet trade if that happened.

For coloration they are rather plain. the Costa Rican variety are much more colorful although they also have a nebulatus that is the most commonly found. Looks like the Suriname types. they are a very interesting species though and it will be fun to see if I can captively reproduce some. I need to find more though to give a more diverse spread. There is one other person I know of in the US that has these but he only has females. I hope if I produce some, I can perhaps trade a femal for one of my male babies. Then he could perhaps get started too.
