Anyone know anything about this snake in the wild or in captivity? Any help is appreciated. I will post this in the boa forum too.

This species is almost extinct in the wild, and critically endangered by habitat destruction. It has only been in captivity at one place (the Jersey Wildlife Trust is the name I believe - the zoo started by Gerald Durrell).

Why don't you save us all the forum space and post a single question with a list of the species you are interested in rather than posting 30 separate posts? Or better yet, do your research first and come here to see if you can fill in any gaps. A trip to a good library or even a google search will provide more information than you are getting so far.

If you keep posting this way, people will quickly begin to ignore your posts.
