Rawr and I'm the crazy lady who has both of the above, teehee!

Female Suri's can get up to 10' in length... males around 6-8' or so, just so you know.

Suris also range in price, depending on the grading. A really nice, clean, pink Suri can run you a $200-300. I'd say you're probably looking at around 200 or so...

The market, both supply and demand, change. If you'd really like to get an idea of average prices, I'd suggest looking on kingsnake, especially for larger breeder/pet store ads, or large reptile stores that list animals and prices online, such as http://lllreptile.com/.

Both myself and April have Suri's from LLL and we love them. =)

Once you get an idea of those kind of prices, you could probably expect to pay a bit more from big name breeders, such as Rio Bravo Reptiles.

got it i just checked kingsnake and now i know i need to be willing to pay about $200 plus shipping for a boa. . . doable definitely by fall at most ok thanx guys

Does anyone have a male Suri that's over 8 feet?? I'd love to get one but I'd like to stay under 8 feet.

I'm sure it's happened and that there are a few specimens out there over 8' long... but it's rare.

Here's some info on Surinames: http://www.riobravoreptiles.com/boas_suriname.htm

Gus has collected most of his specimens in the wild... he is one of the foremost knowledgable people about boa constrictor subspecies.

Also, a meter equals around 3.25 ft.

thats kinda why i wanted to get one they get large but there not overly large
