Anyone Work With Candoia Asper (Viper Boa)?

[Kimo]

wish that option was a possibility..but alas money i am not made of!

But whom is this Angus individual whom breeds them? and is there anyway i can get in contact with him, or perhaps a website?
would love to gather info from somone who deals with these snakes first hand!

Josh ,the Candoia King is Mr. Jerry Conway, an American that has been working with Candoia for many years.
I've corresponded with him a few times over the years and unfortunately last time I enquired he was unwilling to apply for CITES to export Candoia to Canada. Candoia, being boas are all appendix two, so getting CB's from the US is next to impossible. Wild caughts still come in occasionally and can then be re-exported, and they come into the pet trade every now and then from large US wholesalers.

I wanted some of Jerry's Isabel Island Paulsoni to add to my group, but it never happened.
Jerry Conway has a great website you should check out for some awesome pictures (and info) of the various Candoia he has worked with.
Unfortunately I can't link to his site as it's on King snake, but if go over there and look under " caresheets, FAQ's,features" you'll find "The Candoia Page"
