This species is native to the eastern chinese lowlands and foothills. This is a moderate sized constrictor growing to an average of 130-160cm with some specimens up to 180cm known. This is one of the more docile beauty snakes. We are working with a very large group of this species that includes several morphs. We maintain both T+ and T- albino lineages as well as a new mutation that we are calling "platinum", which is axanthic/patternless in appearance.
