Re: Epicrates subflavus

Somewhere in the 1.2 - 2.4 range, depends on what I get and what I produce mostly. Morelia will most likely be 1.2, SD retics will probably be 2.4, BRBs will probably be 2.4 also, Dunno if Nero will be bread, he's my first and isn't anything spectacular, but he's special to me, maybe once but he'll probably remain a pet. I don't want much more than 20 adult snakes.

Re: Epicrates subflavus

I'll have to read up on the Insular boa research, because E. subflavus, imo, do actually resemble tree boas more than the mainland Epicrates. My guess is that there were DNA studies done to link them to the mainland rainbow boas, but I don't know off the top of my head. (I know it's heresy to say it, but while I find the research interesting, I don't find taxonomy to be all that exact of a science. More of an art. )


Here are some pics of mine:

Re: Epicrates subflavus

So many colors and the rough scales give it reallied nice camouflage in the gravel or grass.

Thanks Cliff! Either "Cornamba" or "Jambelius!"
