Anyone got a Woma?

These seem like really real snakes.

They are said to be very handable, great temperament, and can handle many temperature extremes (cold/hot).

They also do this cool thing shaking their tail to attract prey.

Anyone have one?

If so do you have any pics of them to post?

Also, how big are yours?

I am now up to two females and two males.

Not only do they have the hands down best temperaments of any snake I've kept, they are a breeze to keep. My 06 male is 44" long, my 07 male is about 23", our females both 06s and are about 38" long.

I have a thread here with a picture of my son holding one of the males. I will post a pic of the younger male in a bit.

Here's Hank:

4x2.

90 degrees on the hot end, about 82 on the warm. I drop the temps down 5 degrees at night.

They have no special humidity needs and mine shed just fine at about 45%.

I cannot say enough about their temperaments. Our herp vet told me that she had never considered owning a snake before (she's into tortoises and lizards) until she met Noodles - our older male. She's now asking for a reservation on the first clutch.

When we bring the snakes in for their yearly check-ups, Noodles is the first one checked. He then gets passed among the techs who take turns cuddling with him.

Our vet says that he is the first snake she has seen that seems to thrive on handling.

Depends - you can get a male from $350 to $750. Prices are coming down a bit as more and more are available.

Female are harder to get - most are sold with males as a pair - $1,200 to $1,800 for a pair.

I was able to get my single females for $750 and $800 - shipped.
