Here are some Costa Rican Ruschenbergerii-these are much more common than the Trinidad form.

I always liked these guys . VERY NICE !
In the late 90`s early 2000`s I imported a bunch from Trinidad. They were easy to breed , just like an Amazon. The one difference was the baby's could be really tough starters on rodents. Lizard scenting or even getting a few lizard meals in them first was sometimes needed. The pics are baby shots from 2001 . It's pretty common for the babys to be born BRIGHT solid orange. The other picture I took on location. I know it sucks but if you look close there's tree boa right in the middle. Animals that look exactly like the mainland / Costa Rica animal pictured can also be found on Trinidad. Good luck I think they will go for you.

Hey if you know PAF, from Venezuela, he owns some of the coolest ruschis I´ve ever seen.
He has some that resemble this Costa Ricans, as well as red ones.
These are beautiful snakes, for sure

Yes,
PAF's boas will make you lie awake at night (big sigh......).
You have to admit they are one nice boa to work with. Ernie has a link with super photos under his comment above. Makes one wonder where they all went..........
Regards,
Jeff
