BRAZILIAN RAINBOW BOA

(EPICRATES CENCHRIA)

STATUS: adult female

AVAILABILITY: none

ADULT SIZE: 6 FEET

Once again we have a species here that isn't a colubrid! However these slender boas grow to a nice size without needing extra large housing and, well, the colours!

True stunners and lovely placid personalities, almost a must have snake!

KEY CARE FACTS:

Easy to keep thriving with a slightly damp substrate and not too hot; 28c works well and a hotter hotspot wouldn't hurt either...

Feed well on rodents and chicks, even quite large food items for the headsize soon go down!

Very friendly and chilled out snakes.
