A recent customer of mine told me she came across my name while searching Dumeril's boas online. Since I haven't been advertising in any way, I was interested. Before I came to anything associated with me, I found this:

A dumeril boa is better to buy from a farm when it is a baby. The serpents of this species can live up to 30 years and even more. You are recommended not to feed the serpents raw chicken pieces from the grocery ? they may be inflected with Salmonella bacteria. Wild-caught rodents and other animals may carry a variety of parasites and bacteria for which the snake has no immunity. A dumeril boa is better to buy from a farm when it is a baby.

The animals belong to the order of Squamata; family of Boidae; and the species is called the constrictor constrictor. These are actual terrestrial and arboreal creatures; they are about 10 feet, occasionally up to 15 feet and the weight of such a serpent is about 50 pounds.
