Well I feel like I've won the lottery, today I became the lucky owner of 7 Boiga drapeizii - the brown form. I have no idea of sexes yet.
They're wild caught but in great condition, not dehydrated at all and they have been feeding on tadpoles of all things over the last couple of weeks. Some of them have nose rub, but that is to be expected with any wild caught snakes, it should heal and isnt too bad on any of them.
I've got them set up in pairs and one singly in tubs with large water bowls, branches and leaves, plus coco fibre and bark. They were all given Panacur as a matter of course and what is pretty amazing is that 6 out of 7 have taken a pinkie today! I am CHUFFED to bits. Here's some photos for you all.

They're sometimes called white spotted cat snakes - you won't see them in the UK very often. _________________ Cheers Angi
