    I still wouldn't want even a pair of Kukris for that or any price. I'm sure someone will though. Too bad about the Calibar being w/c...for every w/c imported snake you see for sale, many more have died from the "process", & many of those that survive to be sold won't make it anyway, due to stress-parasites-& disease exposure, so in good conscience I'd never buy that one either (but supposedly they have a very mellow temperament, at least). Burrowing snakes don't tend to make outgoing pets, & I much prefer snakes that interact & show themselves.
