They are Darling....and Docile!

Most babies are PINK for months :p:p:p

I've done some catch-and-release as well......

I have heard MANY Fish-N-Game, and Hobbyist stories....of Specimins being

found during snowy weather in the Sierras :eek: They can be found along the

west-coast, towards and a little past the Sierras...........All the way up to B.C.

They are VERY Long-Lived & Fun Boas! - Jason

I wish I had seen some of those while in Utah. They sure are cool little worms.

I had a rubber boa that me and a friend caught in the middle of the night on a dirt road back in Oregon for a few months... until it escaped in the house, and was never found :(

She was a cool little snake, though... all scarred up, and it looked like her tail had been broken :eek: Must be a rough life for snakes out in the wild!

Usually Adults are scarred up, yet Long-Lived.....tails naturally stubbed.....yet are attacked alot also.....:( They tend 2 be a Lay-low kinda creature.

I was actually looking for some captive breds before, but didn't have any luck.

O I would definitely take one. I mean I doubt you're very serious, but if you knew a breeder I'd definitely be interested.
