Leon,

Just because I have two perfectly health specimens that are going to produce a wonder littler of perfect neonates hardly makes me worth email.
You have too much faith in me man! There are a few members here you will chime in and provide some great info. There are a lot of knowlegble ATB keepers here.
Cheers,
Trevor

Tarentola,

I suggest you narrow your search with some specific questions. Maybe ask us something you're unsure of or a question about something you've read and don't fully understand.
Generally people on internet forums don't respond to general request.
Cheers,
Trevor

Tarentola,
Hey I didn't find your post too general. Just try corallus.com, it's got a lot of good info. Otherwise do a search on the husbandry of amazon tree boas. Hope this helps a bit.

Dave

I've been bitten a few times by mine and maybe I've been lucky but every time it was very fast tag and let go. Each time bled but was almost completely painless.
Cheers,

Yeah tokay's are a lot worse IMO. The countless times my ATB has tagged me during a water dish change has only resulted in blood but very little pain, but then again my atb is still a lil bugger at 2.5-3 feet :P.
