Rubber boa
Anyone have experience with them? They are so cool.

Yeah, I'd love to see one!
The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

Re: Rubber boa
I've lived in Oregon most of my life and have never seen a rubber boa. I'm glad they are so good at hiding, there are hawks everywhere.

I've seen them listed for sale exactly once...and then, they were gone.
(They weren't cheap, either.)

I have a pair. They are a fun little species, very calm and deliberate in their actions. Also dead easy to care for, just set them up at room temps and leave them alone. They can be a bit of a pain to get feeding when young but once they start they are full on gluttons. There are a few breeders out there with them if you go looking but be prepared to wait as it seems most breeders wait to sell the babies after they are a year or so old. Price on them is not that bad either, expect to pay ~$200-$400 or so

Used to have 2. They were really cool. Very easy to take care of.
One ate regularly, the other one skipped here and there. They always look much prettier in person, than they do in pictures. Back then I paid around $100 for each one or so.

They're very similar to rosy boas actually, but they're found at higher elevations in the mountains & need cooler temperatures, whereas the rosy boas
are found in coastal & desert areas (as well as inter-grade areas in-between). They are protected (CA Fish & Game) & not many are bred in captivity.
(I've never kept rubber boas, only rosy boas.)
