A. dumerili?

[Hotchkiss]

Was scrolling though craigslist and saw this, anyone know what species it is? My first thought was Dum when I saw it. Could be wrong, though.

Boa with cage light and accessories (http://maine.craigslist.org/pet/4540642405.html)

Yes that is a Dumeril's (Acrantophis dumerili). I believe that that tank setup is a poor fit for a Dumeril's which is a ground boa. There are no hides and there is not much room to burrow, although by that age he may not care to do so. If you were to pick it up I would say you are not interested in the cage or the heat lamp and use the extra money to buy a proper cage with a proper heat source.

Oh, I know the cage is very improper. and not to mention it's illegal to keep the species in my state...
