Jamaican spaghetti

natsamjosh Nov 05, 2011 08:07 AM

Cliff recently suggested I get some pics of my Jamaicans boas together, so I tried the impossible task of getting pics of two fairly skittish snakes together... by myself, and with a broken finger. It took a lot of patience, but I was able to get a few decent pics. Thanks for looking!

And here's Jack, watching and laughing at me..

Thanks Ike! I hope they can make some nice babies one day.

Baby insular epicrates most likely eat lizards in the wild, so they don't readily eat rodents. However, I don't push mine to eat rodents. The little one has eaten a rabbit pink and a rat pink, but she will only eat mostly quail.

Thanks,
Ed

Thanks Jeff. The Jamaicans are a little skittish, but at least they aren't eating me out of house and home like Jack...

Thanks,
Ed
