Arboreal Or Semi Arboreal

[morphnmotors]

Hey everyone!

I have two enclosures (a 2 x 2 x 2 and a 30" x 2’ x 2’) looking for new inhabitants. I was hoping for an Arboreal or semi Arboreal for these. But I want something a little different than mainstream. I already have CRB, BRB, and Carpets. The rainbows are strictly terrestrial despite having climbing opportunities.

I’m not too interested in ATB as they hide a lot and have had bad experiences in the past. Also not looking for GTP, Emeralds, ECT. And want something more advanced than corns, rats, ECT.

These enclosures will strictly be for juvis or small adults that will be upgraded to bigger enclosures as they grow.

Any recommendations?

Possibly looking at Indonesian Tree boas, Solomon Island tree boas, ECT

Have you thought about garters? A lot of the species will climb a lot and also like to be kept together. The same thing goes for rough/smooth green snakes but they are just more arboreal compared to garters which are semi-arboreal (or at least will climb a lot in captivity).

Looking for arboreal snake recomendations

I’ve got a 4 ft long custom vivarium set up for a colony of tree frogs which are on their way out of the animal room and I’m looking for a new occupant who will use the three feet of climbing space and enjoy the little jungle I have planted in it. I’ve looked at Rough Greens as an option though they seem hard to find. I’m an intermediate keeper and feel confident in my ability to handle things like humidity and without an issue but my main concern is size. Ideally I would get a single snake who …

Affordable Arboreal Snakes?

I’m trying to find a snake species that would fully utilize a 4’ x 2’ x 4’ enclosure. Nothing over 1000 dollars, nothing that can only be found wild caught, and I don’t want a brown species. Nothing against brown species, I just want something with a bit more color as most everything else I keep is brown. Also, no amazon tree boas. I’ve looked at them and their care, handled some at an expo and seen them in a friend’s collection, and something about them just puts me off. Not totally sure if the…
