• In case most of you have not noticed, I made changes to the donation amounts as well as the durations for all of the paid membership levels. Things are winding down here, and this seems to be the most prudent way to deal with the "end of life" period of this site.

    Contributor level members - $10 per 30 days
    Sponsors - Eliminated
    Benefactor level members - $25 per 30 days
    Endowment level members - $50 per 30 days

    On July 1, 2027, all paid memberships will be closed.

    On August 1, 2027, FaunaClassifieds will be terminated.

    Only change I expect that might take place is when I can get around to figuring out when the amount of money I would have to refund for the yearly paid memberships becomes less than the monthly expense of leasing my server, THAT date might be the termination date for the site.

Could someone share their Thamnophis marcianus care "overview"?

Hi all,

Could someone share the tank set up and or general care they give to their captive Thamnophis marcianus? Also, if possible, could you share photo's of the cage and your specimen(s)? Lastly, do you believe Thamnophis marcianus should be consuming F/T rodents only or do you believe in a "varied diet"? If you believe in a "varied diet", could you please tell me what prey items you use? Also, the ratio/rotation of the prey item in the overall "feeding plain"?

Thanks for your time and looking.

make sure your top is a tight fit I do not use anything they can swallow,when you feed them like ground cover,I use paper towels, some place to hide, and a good size water dish u should have a heat source at one end for digestion, and they have a cool side to rest
