We have 2 red tail boas, a ball python, a jungle carpet python, a snow corn snake, and now the ribbon snake.

They don't eat mice at all, or crickets. They eat fish.

He won't 'fatten up', they're thin snakes. He'll get a little bigger, but not too much. I think they average only around 2 feet long.

I don't know as much about him as I wish I did, but I'll learn from Justin, just as I have with the other snakes. When Justin was a kid he loved reading snake books, he's read them from cover to cover, over and over. When we got our house one of the first things he did was get Flick, our corn snake. He'd waited practically his whole life for a snake. He even worked with reptiles (snakes and alligators) at Gatorland for awhile, but it didn't pay enough and he needed to find a better job.
