    Never kept them here.... I looked at them long and hard and decided to steer clear due to the horrible reputation they have for being picky eaters.
    What do you have ???

    I currently keep only the ground boas. I have never had any problems with the adults or juveniles feeding( CB or WC) The babies can be tough but with a few tricks most will eat. To go into all the tricks would be too long of a reply here. Through hard work & research I have discovered some new tricks. I have a group site on yahoo if your interested. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/pacificislandboas Randy

    they're a bit picky, they only eat house lizard (geckos) i think,
    but house lizard s are common in my area, so that's better than to find pinkies..
