    They are in the pet trade, I just don't think a whole lot of people are working with them. I'm waiting to see what the 2013 season brings... I REALLY love these guys and I hope things work out so I can get one at some point.

    I believe these were the guys that had them in White Plains btw - http://www.harrisinwonderland.com/av...ilsnakes.shtml

    Exclusive snakes in Bramton breeds them every year as well. And a friend of mine from the area produced some this year as well. He held the 2 he produced back but they are around if your interested in them.

    My pair has been breeding like crazy the past month so hopefully we get some healthy eggs. To answer the OP's question, I keep my pair in a divided 4x2x2 giving them 2x2x2' each. I have a humid hide in each and multiple climbing branch's. I use heat tape on the bottom giving them a hot spot of 85. They each also have a large ceramic water bowl as they do really love soaking. I read somewhere that if you keep their entire enclosure to moist they can develop a skin condition. The way I avoid this is keep their enclosure dry but have a humid hide and large water dish. Mine have been shedding perfectly, they know when they need moisture so they just soak.
