Farancia erytrogramma (also known commonly as the rainbow snake, and less frequently as the eel moccasin) is a species of large, nonvenomous, highly amphibious colubrid snake, endemic to the coastal plains of the southeastern United States.
Specific breeds include rattlesnakes, iguanas, reticulated pythons, tarantulas, Burmese pythons and box turtles. [ 2 ] [ 8 ] They breed the majority of their stock in a back room. [ 1 ] Prices range from $3.50 for a tree frog and $25 to $50 for a snake, to a Chinese crocodile lizard that costs $1,000.

They can carry diseases, such as salmonella and leptospirosis, which can be transmitted to humans.
