Some more insular Epicrates pics...

Nice to see the recent WI Epicrates threads. Here are a few of my animals [sorry the heads are out of focus on some of these ]:

Nice yearling Cuban - these guys are bulletproof and will eat anything. Mine have taken a particular liking to small rabbits.

Young Bimini boa, E.s.fosteri, starting to develop nice adult coloration.

Couple of Ford's boas, E.fordii, the first one has an almost completely fused dorsal pattern:

Lastly, a couple of Haitians, E.s.striatus:

Ryan,

They all look like ringers to me.

So do all these insulars musk? Do they stop doing that once they
get acclimated?

Thanks for the pics!

Ed

Those are really gorgeous! I'd love to get some non-cenchria Epicrates someday, since many of them are endangered it must feel killer to be breeding them successfully!
