The Cuban Boa is the largest of the West Indian Boas of the genus Epicrates reaching lengths of over 12'. Their husbandry is very similar to Boa Constrictors. They breed in the spring and babies are born in Aug. thru Oct. Offspring can measure up to 3' in length and they only have 4-6 young. Large ones are usually exceedingly tame and very hardy. Unfotunately there is not a lot of color or pattern differences and to date no morphs that I'm aware of. Nonetheless they are quite interesting and rewarding to keep. If you would like more info e-mail me with your phone # and I'll call you. thanks...Tom Crutchfield
