    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Hello,

I have a group of Mandarin Rat Snakes (Elaphe mandarina) available. There are 2.2, all adults. Eating F/T small/medium sized adult mice.

This group is thriving and was just warmed up from brumation and ready to start breeding. Unfortunately, I just need to make some room and some of my snake projects need to be slimmed down.

The price for the group is $1,400 + Shipping.

* The 2 females are pictured first. Then the two males.

Thanks Erik


I live in Colorado, so if you're not local shipping will be required. I ship via FedEx priority overnight. I charge only what I have to pay for shipping, nothing extra. I do not charge for a box or heat/cool packs. All shipments include a live arrival guarantee, EVEN in the event of a carrier error, given that are you there to sign for the package on the first delivery attempt. I do prefer to send shipments as "hold for pickup" so they do not ride on a truck until delivered, especially in the summer/winter months when the temperatures are on the high/low end. I reserve the right to hold off shipping if I feel the weather is not acceptable. I want my geckos to arrive alive and will not shipping them in extremely hot or cold temperatures. I will communicate with you until shipping works for both you and I and will never just send a box out without getting confirmation that you will be there for them.

Preferred payment method is PayPal. I do not charge any fee to use PayPal. I can also accept USPS money orders, checks, bank transfers, etc. However some payment methods will require a wait time until the payment clears. Anything over $5,000, I would prefer bank transfers.

Please email me with what you're interested in and a zip code and I can give you a shipping quote. Any questions, just ask!

Hello,

If there is another buyer for the other pair, I would consider it. However all 4 of these are the last snakes in one of my racks that I want to move. So I would like to sell them all at once.

Thanks Erik
