depends what age of royal you want. older males will be easier to get hold of as breeders normally keep females. _________________

agreed...females are like hens teeth at times to get lol....as for temperment there pretty much the same docility wise. Some Royals are certainly more head shy than others . _________________ 3.7.0 Royals

Getting a male Royal straight from its breeder is the best idea. Any breeder of Royals is going to have some extra males at hatching time, so pm a breeder from the Forum. It is possible for a Royal to get to 6' BUT that would be a female and an unusually large one at that Most males get to about 3.5 - 4'. If you are worried about temperament, remember to always move nice and gently when picking up a snake. If you grab at it, it will be startled and bite - stands to reason  |
