    Rubber Boa?

    Honestly, until last week I'd never heard of these. But from the video I saw they are considered the perfect snake to get people over their fear of snakes because they are small and never ever bite. Apparently native ot California. I did some searching but couldn't seem to find anyone selling them. All the site I saw dealt with wild caught ones. I managed to find a care sheet though and they seem deceptively hard to take care from a feeding stand point.

    Anyone have any experience with them?

    There are breeders out there, you just have to hunt to find them, I just picked up a CB 1.1. Only had them a week so I cannot speak to the feeding thing yet but I have heard they can be frustrating at times. They are certainly cool little buggers though

    I picked up two Rubber Boas in my yard we live in the Costal Mountains in Oregon 18 miles inland from the Pacific Ocean they love this rain forest effect we have going on, I just bend over and pick them up they just melt into your hand a very docile Boa. After I gave them a love hug I sat them down and I set down until they moved on they took their sweet time. I will post a picture from my phone camera..
