Baird's Rat Snake
Elaphe bairdi Because of the remoteness of its habitat in south-central Texas and northern Mexico, these snakes are not often found in the wild. My stock comes from Vivid Reptiles, which are locality specific to Val Verde County, Texas and selectively bred to produce a snake with metallic silver scales on a orange background color. The average Baird's reaches about four feet in length and is among the most docile of rat snakes. $175 each Click here to see my Baird's Rat Snake Photo Gallery |
