You can find them on the kingsnake classifieds under (other boas).Listed as Solomon island or Halmahera.The problem is they are wild caught-scared-old-will not eat-and usually have parasites.My advice for a first snake is get a captive born baby-that is eating new born pinky mice.They are very small usually 6-9 inches.And if they are eating once a week for you-they are pretty much effortless and easy to keep.I keep my little ones seperately in 5-gallon cube glass/with the fancy double doors on the front.Also a repti-therm mini under-tank heater works perfect.I feed them in a deli cup at night-they allways eat.I can look for Dr. Parkers e-mail or you can also ask in the candoia forum if someone has any.Don't get a wild caught one-even if they claim it's eating-they lie-also dont get an adult snake they say is captive born-again they lie.jenni/
