Amazon Tree Boa info

[Tarentola]

Can any one here guide me too a good care sheet or give me some info themselves?

I know lots already but I want to find as much out as possible.

Hi,
Email BoidKeeper.... he can certainly get you started and he would love to share his knowledge.

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

Hey Trev,
I never said you were an expert... just said your a good starting point. :)

[BoidKeeper]

And you're not Mr. ETB?
Cheers,

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.

thanks for the help................and i have already bookmarked corallus.com

thanks for the replies.....................how powerful is there bite seriously?Is it a feeling you can compare it too?

[BoidKeeper]

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,
Trevor

[Tarentola]

thats good...................tokay geckos are worse then.

They make u bleed and they don't let go hehehehehe

[HeRpZ03]

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.

[jparker1167]

My atb is around 5.5 feet and the bite isnt as bad as i thought it would be but sometimes he holds on and bites down harder but it still isnt to bad

[Tarentola]

do ther teeth usally come out too........................I ask becasue when my boa tagged me teeth came out................it was a 2.5 foot boa and I barley felt it but I bled.

[leoncurrie]

I don't think the teeth would come anymore then any other type of boa
