Thank you everyone. You guys are awesome. Thank you for the list. I'm now thinking I may shoot for sexed year old Sorong type or other similar localities mentioned. I've always wanted to get into green tree pythons or emerald tree boas since I saw my first ones as a child. I just never felt I was ready till now. I finally have that confidence and my excitement is building. Such beauty. I held a very tame 6ft female biak and ever since I've decided its a must have. I have yet to see a Sorong in person but I can't wait. It's too bad they can't be sexed by feeling like on baby boas. How often can adults be held without too much stress once older and established? I normally hold my boas and milksnakes while I clean their enclosures for ten to fifteen min two or three times a week or when I see they made a mess etc. Even if they are blue or shedding and have even helped them shed at times as long as they feel relaxed and not stressed or tense. I find it awesome that one of my boas at times when I go to put him back in his enclosure climbs right back onto my hands and arms if not ready to go back in yet. Normally after fifteen to 20 min he goes back in easily no fuss. It's odd to me but wonder if anyone has had similar experience with green tree pythons? I have milksnakes too but they have never done this behavior yet on a regular basis.
