Simon,
I'm far from an expert on Gonyosoma and certainly would defer to the opinion of anyone who has produced F2's, but...

I have one CB baby, one LTC proven female, and also have 2.2 that are recent imports (from small to large).

And I can tell you that once the babies are eating on their own they are extremely easy to keep. In fact they're easier than anyting else I keep. My LTC female is also extremely healthy and is a snake I just don't worry about.

The WC's are problematic. From my small sample size the key is to get them early. I mean find an importer you trust and find out when a shipment is coming in. And then pay extra to have him or her send you the quality stuff.

The specimens I've had that sat around in the importer shops have crashed and burned after I recieved them.

Hope this helps a bit.
