Raising Desert Rosy Boa Snake

Non-venomous and native to the southwestern United States and northwest Mexico, the Desert Rosy Boa is known scientifically as Lichanura trivirgata gracia. This snake's name comes from both its pretty pink or rosy hue and its natural setting in the desert. It's a short, stout-bodied snake with a striking pattern of three dark stripes running down its back. These snakes are typically kept as pets due to their striking look and gentle demeanor.
The desert rosy boa is primarily found in dry, rocky, and scrubby environments. They prowl at night and eat tiny animals like rats and birds. Due to their mild demeanor and manageability, they are highly sought after by reptile aficionados.
If you're considering keeping one of these snakes as a pet, it's important to familiarize yourself with the species' special needs and to verify that it's not against the law in your area.
