Oh yeah, John (Jeff) do you have any experience with Suriname Boas? Was looking at a couple last night and really want one now. They seem like really good snakes.

Suriname Boas are a subspecies of Red-tail Boas. They are found it Surinam. I have only had one red-tail boa. They require the same things as most large snakes. 78-82*,BIG cage and BIG prey/food. I miss having pythons.

How much do they want? I wouldn't think it would be more than 100-150. At least they rarely get over 12' with and avg length of 10'. A 275lb 19' python can be a load.

Erik95LS · Post by **Erik95LS** » February 10th, 2007, 8:21 pm

they want $250. Now that I think about it I guess it was more like 20" or so. Still really skinny. Friendly as can be though, at least so far.

Like most animals, the more they are handled the better the odds are of it being a qualtiy pet.

I am shocked that they are still that expensive. It must be a petshop. I would find a private breeder... unless he is so cute and cuddly that you can not resist him.

I would feed him every 2 days and get about 10' within his first year.

most of the breeder ones I've found are $500-600+ So this one is really not that bad of a deal and the conenience of it is another plus. I also read that Suriame's are really prone to death from feeding too often. They regurgitate their food and die from it. Several sources make this claim.

Here's the Goodwood Revival!

http://www.goodwood.co.uk/revival/

Everybody dresses in period clothes, 1948-1967. It's a three day carshow, airshow, and vintage car race. Unlike Monterray, for example, they rail these millon dollar vintage racecars like they were drunken prom dates!

In some cases, driven by retired racing legends.
This is practically the only place on the planet you can see legendary cars driven at high speed. You might bump into a celib. like George Lucas or Jay Leno too.
Click all the tabs in above link, this is really a cool event.

That seems to be about the going rate for baby Surinames though. We're trying to find some way to get it. Need to get some new tanks and stuff situated first. You wouldn't know any good breeders that might have some Surinames would you?

the goodwood revival and the festival of speed are two different events remember

the revival is as matey there says, and the festival of speed just celebrates cars from the last 100 years which go ridiculously fast

hmmm, owning a 20' 275lb snake sounds interesting

Looking into it a bit more, your price is not bad at all. I wonder if there is anyway of definitively knowing you are getting what you think you are.... you know what I mean? Sometimes there can be a small detail like an extra row or scales or something. Sorry but I don't have many...... I have lost all my contacts since I have been out of the game. I will see what I can do.
