If my memory serves me right, These are a protected species within Mexico are they not? therefore cannot be held in captivity? I am sure I have read this somewhere.

Re: Thamnophis?? really??
Thats right, these are protected species because they are endemic, (i think that everyone here know what this is), and because in Mexico some of this species are endangered due the illegal market or the ignorance of most people who kill them "because they are snakes and snakes are venomous"

Re: Thamnophis?? really??
This is a real Thamnophis. No photoshop.
These pictures are for some years present on my site, with permission from the maker of these pictures: Carl J. Franklin (Biological Curator, Amphibian and Reptile Diversity Research Center, The University of Texas at Arlington, Dept. of Biology, Box 19498 Arlington, Tx 76019)
He wrote to me that this Mexican species (Chiapas, Queretaro, Tabasco, Puebla, Veracruz) eats tadpoles, frogs, fish, small crabs and small lobsters and soft invertebrates. The species lives mainly in humid mountain forests near streams and small rivers.
There is a red/orange and a brown variety.
