Does it make a good pet?
Yes, they can make great pets. Though they’re better suited for more experienced keepers because they can get up to 3 feet long and feed on rodents.
It’s important that your animal is captive bred. Captive bred animals are healthier and are not reducing the wild populations that many wild caught one’s can. Always make sure the habitats are as close to their native conditions as possible.
