What are the websites some good, trusted breeders I could possibly go to?
    Are you looking for locality animals?

    Tinley is this weekend in Chicago.

    If you google the event the list of vendor there should have some good breeders.

    Did you send Legacy a message on their Facebook page? https://www.facebook.com/legacyreptileslocalityboas

    If you looked at the regular web page it says they have no animals available, but it's said that for the last 2 years.

    There are a few members of this board that breed and sell too.

    I'm actually moving to Oregon, so anything I get will have to be shipped. It's good to know that's normal for the website, I was a little discouraged when I went to the available section and it was blank. I haven't contacted them yet, but I will when I'm ready to get an animal.

    Shipping is the norm so don't let that bother you.

    Most of the reputable breeders will walk you through the process and to be honest, the animal I had shipped to me was the most exciting to get of the 3 species I have here.

    I think most folks on this boar will agree there is something special about "FedX" day.

    Work through the caging and setup when you get moved in and then find the snake you fancy and order up!

    Wait a bit and this is what you get.

    Wow! That's such a pretty boa.

    I've lurked a lot on this forum and I'm really looking forward to Fed Ex Day. It looks like Christmas in July. It might be three months down the road, but when I do get an animal I'll have to start a thread to throw the little guy off.

    That IS one good looking Boa. But you should see some of the more current photos. That snake is a Stunner!
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.
