Obsidian Fyre: Candoia carinata

Tula_Montage

It's Jager time!
One of my wee Kofiau Isle locality tree boas. He is an adult proven male but still absolutly tiny. Thus why I love the candoia genus soooo much.

Fingers crossed for the multiple females he hooked up with this season!

Thanks Katie. I am super excited to see what his offspring look like, if I have any success at all with the babies. I don't have very high hopes as carinata are notoriously hard to keep alive.

I will keep my fingers crossed for you. I know you will do everything you can for happy, healthy clutches. And you have had such success with problems snakes of other species...if anyone can figure it out - it would be you.
 
But thats the thing Katie, very few people know what makes them tick. Even if you can get them feeding as babies and everything seems to be going well they still drop dead for no apparent reason. And with tiny clutches of no more than 5 at a time for carinata, thats not great odds. It's easier to raise aspera and paulsoni because of clutch sizes and you can sort of experiment more with temps etc and see which group of babies thrive the best.
