We started in 2001 to make special breeding groups. This breeding year 2007 we have many different successes. We have to sell now some complete breeding groups because we have more then hundred Diones. Slowly but steady more people become interested in the Elaphe Diones. We sell more and more to Denmark, Germany and Great Brittan. Most of the people are interested in the red, orange and the melanistic form All those Elaphe dione subspecimens are not a coloured breeding form. We think that the colouration is very nice and very special. Only three people in the world have these specimens and are breeding with them.

Special about the Diones is that these coloured specimens are more rare then for example the Oreocryptophis porphyraceus laticinta and Oreocryptophis porphyraceus vaillanti or the Rhynchophis Boulengeri. All of those specimens are also in our collection. See www.rareratsnakes.com.
We reduced the collection. We only keep the special collection of Elaphe Diones.
