i have one! i absolutely adore him; he may be my favorite snake (out of about 25). gotta pair him up. i paid 130 USD for him as a yearling, but i got a good deal; they are usually 200 - 225.

I have one I got last year and SHe's about 4 years old now. So far she's been my favorite snake I've ever been around. She really has a personality...

Here she is...

These snakes are really starting to grow on me, I think I might have to get myself one of them.

BISTROBOB:

So far that I know of in Canada it was Chris Marshall who this year had some of these boas in a litter and sold out pretty fast on them as well. Other than that I know a few people in 3 plus years that will have some when they breed there Marshall stock.

You can contact Chris here:

chris@chrismarshell.com

That is all I can tell you, hope it helps.

Chris was the only one to breed them this year to my knowlege I picked up a pair for $750 canadien best snakes I ever baught they are still young but man they are strong they are still short stalky little guys but pure muscles. If eve I need to part with them they will be in the clasifieds. but I am gona grow them up a bit still.

The lil girl has quite the attitude. I hope she eventually turns into a sweet puppy like Apophis.

Just do a search on the forum for Argentine Boas and you' ll get a few links but not as many on sellers.
