Fiji boas in their native country

---

Hi, I live in the Fiji Islands, and have three year-old Fiji Boas Candoia bibroni bibroni. We don't trade in them here, and the ones I have are babies of adults caught during land clearances and rescued from being killed by the locals (who eat them...).

If anyone is interested in colours and behaviours found in wild snakes in Fiji, I have just posted some photos in the Boa gallery (under my email name helenthereef) of three main colour morphs, brown, grey and black, and also of some "Cobra-like" posturing they do when threatened.

We are feeding babies on frozen-thawed geckos, and adults on rats and mynah birds.

Happy to receive comments and answer questions.
Helen
