Colubrid Care Guide

Colubrid Info 

Behavior 

Colubrid snakes have a very energetic temperament.  Quick to move, and love to get into small spaces.  With patience and proper handling, your colubrid snake can be calm and gentle as well! 

We recommend you keep your snake on a consistent feeding schedule and avoid handling your snake during feeding days. 

Lifespan & Size 

On average, adult colubrid snakes can grow 2-6 feet long, and will live a lifespan of 6-8 years. 

Diet

As you probably already know, colubrid snakes eat rodents! As babies, they will eat smaller-sized mice, and then as they grow will eat larger-sized mice. If you want to read more about feeding your colubrid, you can read our feeding blog here.
