    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....

I want to know how they are,temper wise and husbandry? Any info would be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance

the jamaican boa

Kills its prey by constriction

Nocturnal: active at night

Both ground dwelling and arboreal

Reproduction
mating season February to early April
females bear live young from October to December :D :) :eek:
 
Are you sure it's a Jamaican Boa? They're very uncommon, especially to just be given away. Maybe a Brazillian Rainbow Boa? Same genus. Much more common in the pet trade. Similar husbandry. Try looking them up.
 
That's also true. They are endangered. You can occasionally find them for sale though, so it's not impossible that somebody has one. Just highly unlikely they're giving away such a high end animal. I believe they were listed for like $1,500 the last time I saw them offered. Might have even been more. Nice snakes. Cubans and Haitians are awesome too.
