hygrophilus and polylepis

Do you know anyone keeping these two Epicrates subspecies in Canada or the USA?

Country:
I've never heard of anyone working with either ssp. in Noth America. I would really doubt that they would be up here at all though, as we don't have a wide variety of Epicrates available up here in the first place. I've only ever seen E. striatus, E. inornatus, E. subflavus, E. c. gagei, E. c. cenchria, and E. c. maurus (some of them I have only seen once or twice), Colombians and Brazilians predominate the Epicrate population.

Those two mentioned are obscure cenchris subspecies(rainbows) I've never heard of anyone claiming to have them. I'm not even sure they are valid taxon or what they are supposed to look like. I couldn't find any pictures on the web.
sorry... I think its fair to say they aren't being widely captive cultivated, if at all.
