Congrats on getting such a cool little snake.

Awesome! I would like to get one one day.

[Spat]

Thanks a lot!
I'm so happy to have one of these guys, now I have to find a female!!! :)
Hummm I don't know how old is he?
Anyone have an idea of his approx age?
Thanks
Spat

It's probably an 02, perhaps an 03 if it's been well fed. They are usually born in mid summer..
Who produced that one, do you know?

[Spat]

Hum I'm not sure!
I get him to a pet shop at Montreal.
The guy said me that my rough-scaled came maybe from a company of Florida or maybe from reptiles ressource (who, I think, take its reptiles to PCPC).
Thanks for your answer!
From what age a rough-scaled sand boa can breed?
Thanks!

[Stockwell]

They will breed in their third or fourth year depending on how well they feed...
They need to be hot(85 to 90F) to eat, and males feed less than females. don't be shocked when you find they don't eat like corn snakes. They usually need live food as well.

Very neat looking snake! I've never seen one of those before, I'm going to have to add that to my list of snakes to get. :)
