The Complete Boa Constrictor 2007 By Vincent Russo, $54.95
The boa constrictor is without question one of the most popular snake species being kept by reptile lovers today. Once
considered to be a rare and exotic pet, boas are now being bred in large numbers, both by hobbyists and commercial breeders. The increased availability, combined with an ever-increasing palette of
selectively bred colors and pattern anomalies, has catapulted the “common boa” into stardom among keepers and herpetoculturists.
In The Complete Boa Constrictor, Vin Russo takes us into the tropical world of the boa constrictor in all of its forms and geographic races. No armchair quarterback, Russo has traveled to many of the locales discussed in the text and has searched for (and sometimes discovered) the prize he sought: The boa constrictor in its beautiful wild habitat.
Not just a natural history book, The Complete Boa Constrictor boasts over 450 color photos in 280 pages and stakes its rightful place among the other titles in the Complete series published by ECO; it is a thorough how-to manual for anyone who wishes to keep or breed this denizen of the Central and South America Rain forests and covers all the new color phase & pattern anamolies of the trade.
