    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....

i was wondering how hard texas rat snakes are to care for?ive had my corn for awhile now and just recently my local pet store got a beautifull leucistic(sp?) texas rat snake and was wondering if they are hard to care for or not?i dont mind if they are nippy cuz if im going to work with reptiles i think i need to get used to being bitten and also does anyone know any good care sheets for them?

thanks in advance!
 
The Texas ratsnake is no harder to care for than your cornsnake which is a ratsnake too. I think the leucistic Texas rats are very beautiful animals and I haven't noticed them to be any more nippy than some corns and certainly in no way more nippy than kings. They like to eat and will mistake fingers for tasty morsels. hehehe

I don't know of any caresheets for the Texas rat, maybe try Google search for one.

Good luck w/him if you decide to buy it. How about some pics too?
