Morph Patterns Available Yes

Accommodation This snake lives in a variety of habitats including savannah, forest, and rocky hillsides. High humidity(60-80%), branches for climbing. A hide to help regulate temperature along with a day basking spot at 80'F(27'C). Always include a dish big enough for bathing.
Lifespan Can live 12-15 years
Feeding / Diet Lizards(Newborns), mice, and rats. Depending on the size of your snake. No bigger than the diameter of the thickest part of the snake.
Breeding Oviparous, with females laying up to 15 eggs in a clutch.
Other Considerations Strictly prohibited wild specimens. Captive bred only available.

However, like all animals, they can still become sick or injured despite our best intentions to prevent this.
