That second picture is the coolest picture I've seen in a long time. I've always wanted these boas - and just tonight was talking about trying to find one, or two - for the near future.

All I can say is WOW. That is one species of boa I have always wanted. I'm so happy Canada is now producing these gorgeous animals (and others) that were currently only available in the states.

Absolutely incredible! You are an honoured man to be working with such a sought after boa.

I, thought that argentines would not be as popular as other boas, due to their sometimes nasty attitude (as babies) and very dark colouration.

I would love to own one of those babies! But I'm sure you've got them all sold already!!!

Best of luck and a big congrats!

Congrats Chris, You definitely have a good thumb when it comes to reptiles. I'm sure the quality of these little ones will be just as good as everything else you have ever produced.

WOw thats great

Hi,
Iwould love to hear about the mother and her cage, incubation temps during the gestation, and your feeding schedual did she fast any pre-delivery or did you stop feeding large food items at a certian time. .
From the looks of the babies and their over all health I would say
you did everthing correct and then some.
I ve read on more than one forum that incuabtion temps play a major roll in slugs, and such..
Nice pics they are so cute.
Doug
