can you found one for me? I'm italian...
Can you post a photo of it and some information about?
Thanks,
Ramon.

I have one that has so far refused lizards, although I am going to try geckos next. I am not sure of it's requirements, it just kind of fell into my collection. I have been keeping him with about 80% humidity and around 78F. Is there any info that might help?
Thanks
Kevin

Hi mate

Lizards should do the trick nicely. They like it nice and humid (liberal amounts of pothos ivy is good for this) and really appreciate a nice dark, cool hidebox. They are mostly nocturnal hunters, if you put in enough anoles/geckos I'm sure they'll start picking them off.

They do have a slighly disconcerting habitat of trying to climb onto the highest near object when you're holding them, which often is the fact of the person holding them!

BGF,

Thanks for the info. I tried alligator lizards with no avail, but I am trying house geckos now. I just put a couple in there, i guess we will see in the morning! These are some really neat boigas, I love the green mosslike pattern with the peach body. I am hoping that this little guy(about 3ft and about as big around as a fat crayon!) will kick in. I have been keeping him in a large, deep rubbermaid with branches to keep the humidity up. He seems to be staying well hydrated, it is just the eating thing I am trying to get down. I want to move him to a nice arboreal vision cage, but I want to make sure that he stays well hydrated until he starts eating, that is easier to do in a large rubbermaid, plus it gives him privacy to reduce stress.
Thanks
