I don't think that many people in the U.S. keep them. They are very rarely offered for sale, although they are interesting and attractive snakes.
Such a shame that they seem to be gone out of the hobby even in the countries there from. In Europe the Western coachwhip is getting more populair but most if not all are still very young.

Love active snakes always kept active species.
I guess you cant point me in a US importer that ships to Europe?.
