i keep night tigers and green /blues blue trees ive only had tiggers awhile but really like them to me so far they seem way shyer than the green/ blue trees the good thing about the gts bts they are way more active than any python ive kept especially day time gts can be tricky feeders while juvs but once you get them feeding on mice and rats there a breeze to keep the tigers are defently easier to get eatting mamals . then ifyou start compareing how they look the bts,grt win hands doun but thats just my tastes some of the tiggers are really stunning as well i think if you like one youll mostlikey like both even eastern broun trees have that stunning appeal boofy head big eyes and lovely coppery glow yep just love them colubrids

threefoot by two by two they dont really need to much height i used to give mt bts/gts about three high but have since gone to only two foot high and they seem just as happy they spend alot of time perched just looking then if they see food there into it i use fluo 2 foot lights on the gts/bts they like to lay on them and theres not much chance of them burning them selves on a fluro

i have had my gts for about 6 months now and i have found them to be very quick but very easy to handle. only thing that is frustrating is mine does not eat anything else but frogs but is still a great snake to have. if anyone can tell how to fix this it would help me immensely

Night Tigers are pretty cool.. very active.. but not for the inexperienced keeper.
Their bite is not life threatening, but it can be very painful and produce severe symptoms... Bites from a larger specimen will require hospitalization..
Its pretty hard to get envenomated by one, though. They really have to chew, so as soon as they bite pull em off.
Here is a photo of one of mine

Hey, brown tree snakes n common tree snakes are very different. They may both be colubrids but have very different charactaristics and needs. If dendrelaphis werent such picky feeders they would have to be my favourite snake that iv kept. They are active and curious snakes...not to mention that theyr gorgeous snakes. They usually have good temperaments and are generally a bluff and even if they do give u a hit, the bite is not painfull. They are also diurnal so they r easy to observe.
Brown tree snakes are also one of my favourite snakes. They are awesome looking snakes with their distinct heads and large eyes. Once they are feeding on rodents all the ones i hav kept turn out to be pigs. The downside to these snakes are the fact that although they r active they are nocturnal and often shy. BTS are generally aggressive snakes n wont hesitate to bite if they are cornered but like everything else there will be very calm BTS. Their bites arnt very bad from experience. One f my 6 footers chewed on my hand for about 10 seconds and had to be manually removed, the bite resulted in local stinging, itching and a lot of redness for a few hours.
As tom said, i currently hav a 6 foot male brown tree snake for sale. Good feeder on rodents ect. $350. Preferred NSW buyer. Relitivaley calm snake and rarely bites. The hook in the pic is being used to support the snake and not stop it from hitting me for anyone that is curious.
cyas,
Brendan.
