Kenyan Sand Boas

[nwheat]

As I was returning these two to their cage after feeding, I realized I'd never posted pictures of them!

I brought these little sand boas home from the San Jose show. Thanks Wes!! The kids & I just love these little cuties! They are so mellow! They are both eating f/t pinkies readily and have both shed for me since coming home.

Here is a shot of both of them - the female has the brighter orange markings.

I love how they try to burrow into the carpet. This is the female.

And here's a close-up of the male:

I see you "snuck" them in safely. They really are cool little snakes.

Lol, my husband just rolled his eyes at me. :main_rolleyes: The kids absolutely love these snakes (as do I)!! Thanks again, Wes!!

Those are very cool Nance! I used to have an anery KSB named "Ninja." She was a really neat little girl! I would love to breed these guys but will have to wait until I have more space and time!

Thanks, Nicole! The anerys are really cool looking!

Thank you Nancy that means alot coming from a gecko breeder like you

Now thats a snake I would not mind owning. Nice and small!

Can I ask where you got your anery and how much I should expect to pay for one? I've been wanting a male ever since I got my normal female. She's still very young, but I'm just in love and would eventually like another. They're not the most common snakes around though, so I'd appreciate any info.... thanks!

LLLReptile is where I bought mine I hand picked him in-store and there price vary alot depending on age but I got my guy for $79.99.

 

[Emma318]

So, can I assume (and I know what happens when you ASSume!) that the black and white kenyan sand boa females that they have listed on their page for $129 are anerys?

and maybe this isn't the right place to ask, but do you guys trust animals from LLLreptiles? I only ask because the one gecko I have bought from them was pretty sickly. and of course they only have females when I'm looking for a male.

any breeders out there?

 

[Nigel4less]

I love their animals but I only buy animals in-store from them. A few breeders are:
www.VPI.com
www.jasons-jungle.com
www.captivebredherps.com
www.savinggracereptiles.com
www.mesozoicreptiles.com
www.naturalselectionreptiles.com
www.newagereptile.com


And lots more if you need them

 

[Emma318]

Woo hoo! so i just ordered my new male anery! and he's 66% het snow!
Here's the pic, what do you guys think?

 

[Nigel4less]

Hes a nice one I love his black almost like a chocalatey color May I ask who you bought him from?

 

[leolover2]

That's a nice boa!! Very pretty.

Thanks Chris and Nigel!

I actually ended up getting him from Mark Westberg (found on fauna). He is a very cool guy! Gave me a good deal, and threw in a little juvie crested for free! I'll have to post more pics once they both get settled in. I think he's got more - email or PM me if you want his contact info.

I love these KSBs! they are soooo cool!
