I went to the local rep shop for a chat and a cupper. and have caved in to a lovely Mexican black x he is only a week old and have handled him too, it was funny has i have been told they nip at that age but he/she seemed very settled. any way are they any different to keeping corns. i still have the stuff from Buss (R.I.P) had a look on the sister king snake forum and they have no care sheet.
