Looking for information and photos of them, thinking about buying one and want to be sure of what I'm getting into. Thanks

Ravensgait,
...Most of the PICs I have seen of Rainbow Boas from Trinidad look like Colombian Rainbow Boas. Some of the Rainbow Boas on Trinidad look like Guyana Rainbow Boas and some look more like they may be crosses between Brazilian Rainbows and Colombian Rainbows. Care of Rainbow Boas from Trinidad should be like care of Clombian and Brazilian and Guyana Rainbow Boas. Temps in the low 70s in the cool end of the cage and high 70s or low eighties in the warm end. Humidity in the 75% range or higher, especially higher if they are young or if they seem to be more like Brazilian Rainbows than Colombian Rainbows. They need a water bowl large enough to submerge in and need good small dark hiding spots in their cage. If you are getting imports they may need treatment for external and/or internal parasites.
Good luck,
Jeff

Thanks Jeff, this one does look like a lot like a CRB held the Trinidad in one hand and a male CRB in the other and couldn't see a whole lot of difference, which is one of the reasons I'm looking for more info on them.
