Hey Terry,

I wish I could help somehow, as I find these fascinating, from a distance - for now anyway. Great photos of a great looking snake BTW. Have you tried talking to Gerold Merker? I know that he works with this specie, and has had success with them. It sounds like you have done well with them, and that they have acclimated to captivity okay. It really seems good that they eat well for you, and don't seem to have digestion issues, as I have heard that w/c specimens can be heavily parasitized.

Sincerely - Best of luck,
-Toby
