Re: update on boid the western sovel nose rescue.
Each state probably has different laws. I'm not sure on this exact species. I've never heard of it until he found it. Plus, I'm not exactly sure what he did would be considered harvesting. He saved it from a spider in his yard during a really bad rain storm.

I think "harvesting" just means taking it from the wild, for whatever reason. When I was looking to see if there were any for sale, I saw someone say they had a license to harvest them. But I'm not entirely sure.
Not that I care if he broke the law. I was just curious. I think he should breed them and give everyone here complimentary babies.

Re: update on boid the western sovel nose rescue.
Arizona doesn't have any harvest laws so I'm OK!
Yep. Saved him from a camel spider. His primary diet is large crickets and meal worms.
I haven't yet found any WSN snakes foe sale. I've been actively searching for another in hopes of a breeding pair. He/she is amazingly tame and loves being held more then anything. Likes to try and burrow in my beard haha.

That would be awesome if you could find some and actually be successful in breeding them.

Re: update on boid the western sovel nose rescue.
Also I haven't quite narrowed him/her down between a mericopa or la Paz county shovel nose. I'm like a mile from the border. I'll only know once he gets larger.
California does have laws regarding catching and breeding of this species, glad I don't live there haha.

Believe me I've been looking. Taking the rhino and my prerunner out a few times each week cruising river beds but still nothing. Mostly rattlers and kings.
I've heard and seen a lot of interest in this little guy and I would love to be able to provide these guys to herps interested in having a small, easy to care for snake!

I love snakes - always have - but it's their size that gets me. I always feel bad at the idea of keeping them in enclosures with how long they are. Plus, I really don't have the heart to feed them mice or rats (as I have a beloved pet rat myself). So, in short, one of these guys would be perfect for me.

I agree. Frozen mice were an amazing invention.
I wouldn't have fed my bros cornys if I had to buy and feed live mice haha.

I won't use frozen ones either unless they were killed before they were frozen.

I have to admit I've never seen the movie. I just really like the quote. I try not to take things too seriously.

We used to have a corn, and my dad always told me freezing was just falling asleep and never waking up. Then I got older and realised that the excruciating pain of frostbite was the initial stages of freezing to death, and I was like: DAFUQ? DX I'm just a wuss all around, but I don't mind feeding insects.
