BLACKTAIL CRIBO

(DRYMARCHON MELANURUS)

 

STATUS: YOUNG FEMALE

 

AVAILABILTY: maybe never...

ADULT SIZE: 8 FOOT

 

We are so luck to have three species of Drymarchon here now. The Blacktail Cribo could best be described as looking like a non venomous King Cobra; Its head scalation, colouring and inquisitive nature all make up the illusion. Forget colour, reputataion and rarity; This is probably the nicest of all the Drys when it comes to personality and behaviour.

 

KEY CARE FACTS:

Don't overheat these guys and feed well as fast growing juveniles but back off the feeding as they mature as they'll get fat! Fresh clean water a must too.
