Before I make any suggestions as to where to find them, how much do you consider a good price? If your looking to get them around 50 bucks your probably going to be looking for a while. On the other hand if your looking to spend 100-125 there are lots of options. Let us know. Take care

boaman try www.basicallyboas.8m.com I bought mine from Mike and I am very happy with her. I paid a $100 and it was the best &100 I've spent. There might be more expensive ones based on appearance but I love the way mine Looks like.
Take a look at my pictures for one.

You also might want to look at Mark Kennedy Reptiles. Mark has some awesome boas and is very easy to deal with. I know he had a holdback pair that he had just put up for sale a few days ago.

I thought I saw some neonates for $75 not to long ago. I picked up a killer pair from Tim at Special K reptiles through kingsnake classifieds.
All the best,

I would check with Mike Greathouse....Reptilian Dreams. I bought a 03 male argentine from him and it is simply awesome. It has great pattern & strength/muscle tone and is extremely docile. I plan on getting a female from Mike this upcoming season and I simply won't consider anyone else after a few bad experiences with other dealers. His customer service is beyond exceptional. ...it will be well worth the wait.

In the meantime, you can see pics (although not updated) of my male arg from Mike on my website. I'll be happy to send you updated pics in another two weeks after I finish with grad school.

Sincerely,
Jason
