I must agree with reptilesrock.

The Hoyers are great and have helped out countless people interested in Rubber Boas including me. However, it is my understanding (and i may be mistaken) he releases many of the offspring from his wild collection back into their native local. Not to mention Rubber boas often offer their tail for rodents to chew on as a defense mechanism. Wild Rubber Boas look plain beat up.

"Lam" regularly sells CB rubber boas each year for $200 a pair. I love rubber boas even if they do smell stinky.
