They are from Costa Rica, through Guatemala, Panama, and Honduras. They usually average around 18" to about 24" females being larger than males. I have had them before and they are usually voracoius eaters of F/T and had vey little problem with them eating. According to "Venomous Reptles of the Western Hemisphere", they have no known deaths from this species but hospitalizations have been recorded. Hope this helps.
