Not a tree boa, but here is a paulsoni female eating a chick.













Chicks are cheap (cheaper than rodents) and readily available. I supplement many of my snakes' diet with avian prey with good results. However, I prefer a varied diet for most species so i wouldn't use birds as an exclusive diet, particularly for Candoia.
