I know this question gets beaten to death constantly, but I am looking for a rubber boa breeder!
I have a VERY long-term female captive obtained from some folks who found her in Nevada about nine years ago.
I would absolutely love to find a healthy CB male- these guys seem to be tough to find. Not sure if anyone breeds locality specific, or if it matters, but finding one that traced back to the same state or area of the state would be incredible but obviously not a deal-breaker.

I'm located in Oregon and am even willing to travel quite far for one that someone doesn't want to ship, if that helps anything.

Thanks, folks!

As you may or may not know, in Oregon you can collect and maintain as many Rubber Boas (non-protected species), as your heart desires but with the provisions that they cannot be sold or bartered and have to be maintained in a humane manner.

As a serious hobby, I conduct both field and laboratory research on the Rubber Boa. You might consider the option of taking on a wild male and either maintaining it yourself or just use it for mating with your female then releasing it where found. This is something I have done over the years.

If you can travel to Corvallis, you could go out with me and capture your own male boa. A number of individuals have done that very thing over the years. My email address is charinabottae@earthlink.net should you wish to contact me directly.
