ayone know about Viper Boas? (Candoia asper)

I was looking at Glades Herp available animals and came across Viper Boas for $75. Anyone ever hear of them? Here's a pic; they look really short bodied and cute. :)

Yes I've heard of them and the Pet Store I shop at had one for sale. They look beautiful. Don't know much about them though. However the one I handled at the store made no pass at me.

wow! Thanks special K that was a great link I've never even heard of these before - says they top out at six feet ..... that's within my range... and GORGEOUS coloring! Thanks Genivive too for bringing up this topic I LOVE learning about new snakes!

jen, i think that specimen is a little better looking then most. and im sure youve been reading about them so you know that alot of them have nasty tempers. thats a snake thats definaly on my list once i start drifting from ball pythons. have you looked at other candoia ssp? i really want a pair of paulsonis someday. you guys can see them in that link that KLG gave you.

vizzle bizzles will bite the shizzle out of you, my nizzle.




(you'll have to excuse me, i'm in a rather wonderful mood)

Wow K, thanks for the great link. It got "favorite-placed" by me really quick. :)

Very cool and stout looking! The boa equivalent of a blood it would seem - at least in body type and glaring eyes hehe.

And attitude, too! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Why am I always drawn to the evil looking snakes, lol?
