I have never been involved with the pet industry side of herps so am pretty much ignorant in that regard. I suspect that the price for any species is pretty much governed by supply and demand.

Essentially every species on earth are gems in their own way possessing unique life history aspects that could be fascinating if such were to be revealed. I began my continued involvement with the Rubber Boa in July, 1962 and then in 1965, decided to learn all I could about the species. At the time, I had never encountered the species in the wild and didn't do so until about 1966 or 1967 when I was 32 or 33 years of age.
