Anyone know anything about Waigeo Is. Boas (Candoia carinata ssp.)?

The only thing I have ever heard was that Jerry Conway was supposed to be getting some and they were different looking. He posted the info on my yahoo group site http://groups.yahoo.com/group/pacificislandboas
He said he would post pics asap but hes been real quiet since then.I did see hes got adults for sale tonight to finance some new stock. Maybe he has finally recieved them. Randy

I spoke w/ Jerry today. He does have some of these new island locale carinata. He's fairly certain that they are indeed Candoia carinata carinata, and not a new ssp. They are very different looking.

Jay I hope I answered your question right. I now see that Ben Seigel has some fantastic looking tree boas for sale in the classifieds. I thought possibly you had seen Jerrys post somewhere. I believe that Jerrys candoia would be the ground boas of this island but I could be wrong. Randy
