..female, cb 2004, from Siquirres, Costa Rica parents. The nicest female neonate I've ever raised. A real firecracker!! She's in shed, but I figured I'd take some pics since I already went to the trouble to get her out and clean her enclosure.

Matt,
You KNOW I'm a Bothrops junkie!
That's a nice leucurus! Good luck on breeding them.
I had 25 babies born in early June, they were a little trouble getting started, but once on pinks, they were savages.
I am slowly starting to build my collection of Bothrops.
Here's what I'm working with so far:
Bothrops asper
Bothrops atrox
Bothrops caribbaeus
Bothrops moojeni
Bothrops pauloensis
Bothrops venezuelensis
So, as you see, I have a way to go to have a decent representation of Bothrops, but I'm working on it!

The babies have a really bad temper but they calm down with age like most Bothrops sp

Thanks for posting.
I'd love to have some, but they're rarely available here.
