Not long after joining BPnet, I did a quick search on "candoia" to see what it turned up. Let me just say that I am very jealous of my American counterparts. You have access to some amazing specimens!

I'm sure that any photos posted here will bring me to tears, but I'd like to go forward with it anyway! Candoia keepers are so few and far between (in the States too I would imagine), so please tell me all about your Solomon Island Ground Boas and any other Candoia you have, how you get into them, if you've had breeding success etc.



Solly and Poirot. Unfortunately, Solly passed 19 stillborn babies a few weeks ago. Heartbreaking, but she seems to be doing well, so I am thankful for that.




Love that face

I have a few more that I don't have photos of. My non-reptile-guy husband bought Solly a couple years ago at a local petstore. Hefty pricetag, and she developped a rectal prolapse a few months later (fixed not long after, of course), but she is now my favourite girl.
