    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Anyone have Indonesian Tree Boas?

I just got a Indonesian Tree boa. I've done countless research. I would just like to talk to someone that has one. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Congrats on the new Indonesian Tree Boa! I've kept them for years. Happy to share tips on humidity and temperament whenever you're ready.
 
That's awesome that you did your homework beforehand—so many people don't. One thing that really makes a difference once you've got everything else dialed in is being patient with feeding. Most Indonesian Tree Boas will only eat lizards or frogs, and some keepers spend months trying to switch them over to rodents with limited success. Before you stress about feeding, make sure you actually have consistent access to the right prey, because a hungry tree boa under feeding pressure is going to be a stressed tree boa. Beyond that, they really reward you with hands-off care—keep the temps stable, don't handle them much, and they're honestly pretty low-maintenance display animals. Feel free to reach out if you hit any snags!
 
Nice, congrats on getting one! They're genuinely cool snakes once you dial in their setup. The main thing that's tripped up a lot of keepers is the temperature—they're way pickier about staying warm than most boas, and if they get cold for too long they'll develop respiratory issues fast. Invest in a solid thermostat from day one. The other big hurdle is feeding since most of them want live lizards or frogs, not rodents, so make sure you've got a reliable source before you're stuck trying to convert one to pinkies. Otherwise they're pretty low-maintenance once you get past those two things.
 
I assume scammers need to post in the forums once before they can PM other users, huh?

At least Clint12723 is only a spammer -- just spreading ignorance, rather than setting up to steal people's money.
