I'm assuming he fares pretty well with them. I've read they're rather difficult to acclimate and even old veterans in the python biz succeed in just keeping them alive. Any tips or special techniques he'd like to share? I, too, rate Boelens as my favorite python and would someday like to obtain one or two, should the Lord tarry and finances permit.

Some of the ones that used to come into the country were in a terrible state but the quality has improved ten fold..I too know a few people that have lost them and for no apparent reason..There is still so little known about them although people do seem to be keeping them alive longer now!..lol
 
Yeah, I was reading an article in Reptiles Mag about the new flik coming out, Snakes on a Plane. It appears that they're using a couple for that. I suppose if they're healthy enough to feature in a movie, than the species is doing pretty good as a whole.
 
can you get any more pics of the diamonds, they are such a stunning animal. there doesnt seem to be that many true diamonds over here... or am i just not looking hard enough?
 
i visit the site quite often mate since i saw it on your sig when you joined. haven't got around to signing up onto it yet though. seems to be a few aus diamond keepers out there. i love the Gosfords. found somewhere that sells them for a grand ea. is that about right?
 
very nice pythons your friend has
 
Thanks nic..Davo they seem to range from £750-1000 and I think I remember seeing the advert your referring too.They can be got cheaper if you go to some of the big shows like Hamm or Houten..just be carefull who you buy from as there are a lot of diamondXJungles out there which are sometimes sold as pure diamonds..;)
By the way join the forum lots of pics to see!
 
yea will do soon, i like the site. yea, as much as some of the jungle crosses look nice, they're something i wouldn't like, i dont like hybrids/crosses in any animals really.
