MONDAY PICS. Epicrates cenchria asissi

Jeff Clark Jul 17, 2006 11:02 PM

Campina Grande Rainbow Boas, Epicrates cenchria asissi. These are adults that were captive produced by David Fabius in Uraguay. This is one of the smaller subspecies of Rainbow Boas. All of my adults are between 40 and 45 inches long. There are likely less than 20 of these snakes in US collections.

Those are really cool....I am wondering if you think it's possibly that the "striped Brazilians" that are on a few websites could be a crossbreed of cencria/asissi?

Linda,
...The striped Brazilians I have seen were big bodied snakes like full Brazilians.
