Thanks everyone,

Yah, there all pretty cool boas, good feeders and good temperments as well.

Jen,

Yes, we are working on breeding them again, we almost had it last year, but ended up with premees...Not fun at all, here's a pic of the last one to have survived a little while.

Well we hope to have better luck this season, with breeding 2 females instead of one, chances should be much better, thanks again everyone.

Regards

Mike very nice madagascar projects.Now i know why i never did get the 1.1 ground boas last year i hope all goes well & we see healthy cluch from those gems.Your adult's are sweet.

It must be tricky breeding madagascar ground boas i know of 1 other guy that said his female ovulated last year never seen or heard about a healthy cluch either hopfully you & him have better success this season.(I want)

WOW! Awesome boas Michael! Are you attempting to breed any Sanzinia this year?

bistrobob85,

These are Acrantophis madagascariensis, not the more common Acrantophis dumerili.

Michael,

I sure hope you produce these beautiful boas! I will surely be jealous, not like others we know, but more in a good way ;)

I just wish you good luck too. That is the first time i see a Madagascar ground boa in Canada.

I have 2.2 dumerili and I am trying to reproduced them. My 2 females are probably pregnant. I hope so. If you succede in your breeding project, let me know, I can be interested. They have a lot more charm than ordinary constrictor boas.
