Hi all,
I'd like to start out first by saying that I actually keep common tree snakes. I genuinely feel lucky for this, as I spent several years searching to find my male, and recently secured a mature female to pair with him. Hoping to breed, I understand breeding these guys and getting the babies to feed is quiet difficult, but keen to give it a shot..
With that being said, why are they so scarce within the hobbyist community? It just saddens me a little, I love these little snakes, but there is genuinely much more demand for them than what is available. All Colubrids seem to be harder to find, which is frustrating as I'm not particularly interested in pythons haha.
On top of this, there is barely any information around about them and much of the information seems to be incorrect of conflicts with other information.. I know A LOT about their care now, but didn't have much to reference too when I first started keeping him. Learnt originally from previous owner.
Anyway just curious.
Have a great weekend all
