These are beautiful snakes to work with but never buy these as wild caught. Its not a matter of challenge. They will simply drop dead within a year. don't waste your money. CB babies are available from time to time, if you really want to have this snake wait and look for CB. The wild caught oxycephala are already dead they just haven't stopped moving.

Hello,

: I may be purchasing a pair of WC specimens of this species. I would be really appreciative if anyone could post any tips on the captive care and breeding of them. Is it a bad idea to buy these? I know they aren't supposed to be the greatest captives as WC's, but I'm always up for a challenege and think it would be neat to raise some captive hatched babies for myself. So, is is it worth investing in these snakes? Thanks,

: Paul
