| Hello,
Next week, I expect two snakes of this beautiful specimen. Cares for someone this way? I'll just keep on paper and in rather lower temperatures. Has anyone even advice? At first, I will offer frogs as a feed

| It was in case you were not aware they were WC, as it did not say so on terraristik.com I get some of the importslists, from the guy, who takes home many of the animals Filip are selling and I noticed the bambusicola were on the most recent importlist . So I knew they were wc | |

| Dear Marcello,
They are adult and at good condition. They accepted frozen frog legs. At the moment I keep them at aspen with a water bowl and at 70 % humidity. There is a wet box where they can hide ( they use the wetbox at day )

| Some facts about my 2 specimen The appearance resembles more of a viper, then a colubrid. Head appears triangular Shield is often spread when irritated They have diffenent "timezone´s" to be active ) day and night Often use wetbox or hide places Really fast strike ( in differnece to my Boiga or other rear-fanged ) RGDS Fabian | |

| At the moment I feed them with "frozen frog legs" and mice ( lightly force feeding ) Next time I will use living frogs. Like Macrophistodon spec. they have relative huge fangs and I think they will be flexible,too. When I have the chance I will put some photos here.

| One of the specimen died without any signs. The other one is doing fine. I keep them in a rack without extra heating. The room has about 20 - 22 degrees I use earth and moos to hide. They live very covered, so they are not often seen. | |

| Good luck with them! They are not easy to feed. I feed them with mice/frog, but don´t feed by themself. | |

| Hey Fabian, i think you missunderstood me.. i dont have any yet Hopefully i will have some soon... all good things in good time Since i keep and breed frogs as prey i dont expect getting them to eat is going to be an issue, or that do you think? They are trully beautiful and i cant wait untill i have some of my own! Cheers / Caroline | |

| Hi Fabian, very nice you're keeping your male alive for a longer time. What's his size? My animals were around 20-30 cm I think and they didn't do very well for me Chris | |
