    hey,
    thanks for the help,wouldn't consider him the best for beginners,doesn't bite ,but very difficult to handle,and ALL that it'll eat is fish and only a couple at a time,he may take two today,and will go atleast a week before he'll want/take more,his color a little brighter than this,but he was digging,and is alittle dusty.

    I'd definitely get a stool sample checked out by a vet. A lot of the asian snakes that are imported often come in totally loaded with parasites.

    well, after I wrote it I went back and realized that the care sheets weren't translated

    hey,
    I've had the snake now,for a good 6 mos.+.their a guy selling these at the swap meets for $15.00 ,I'am sure it was wild caught,had mites and afew water blisters,treatment took care of the mites,and after a few sheds,the blisters where gone.I just wished it would eat a little more,then a couple of fish a week,it could use a little more weight on it.only thing i need to watch is the shedding,the eye caps refuse to come off on their own ,so after it's finished i need to put drops of warm water on eyes and a very good pair of tweezers,which I've got plenty of,I build WWII era armor in 1/35 scale.I've been working with snakes now,a good 35+ yrs.and wouldn't recommend one of these ,to a beginner
