I want one. In fact I NEED one!
I'm aware I need to save, but can anyone overload me with as much information I will need to know?
Thanks! |

I dont know much about them, but from what I have read the general consensus is that captive born and bred animals are usually much more docile/handleable (within reason) and less snappy than an imported one. I have nooo idea why. Just thought that was an interesting fact  |
Please feel free to add my photography page on facebook .... or check me out on deviantart  :

They are essentially a display snake, they dont get handled as hatchlings as they are incredibly delicate so when they are big enough for a hold they aren't used to it and then you get bit, oh and lets not forget they have some of the largest teeth in the snake world, I think only the Emerald Tree Boa beats it so if they do tag you it is going to hurt.
They are arboreal so you need a good tall set up with plenty of different levels at different temperatures. They also need to be misted/sprayed a couple of times a day as they dont get drinking from a bowl, they actually collect the droplets in their coils when they are sitting and drink it off themselves or occasionally from the foliage or sides of the cage. An auto mister is probably best for that job saves disturbing them to spray them.
Temperature: 28-30oC with a basking spot of about 31-32oC up at the top of the vivarium
Humidity:70-80% ventilation is also quite important to stop the very humid air going stale
They can be kept in RUBS as hatchlings as long as there are perches but get upto about 6 foot as adults so a suitable arboreal setup is required for adults.
