Insularis, although im not too terribly concerned about potency, i would just like to know.thanks a million.

Actually insularis are quite toxic and are an advanced species. Some neos may require assist feeding for up to 1.5 years and still maybe poor feeders. I gained my knowledge from my good friend mike. He successfully breeds insularis year after year amongst other arboreals. Because of his knowledge I now have raised and bred Wetars myself. They are truly amazing animals, but if your a newbie to the arboreal world I would stick with albos for now. They themselves are a remarkable ssp as well.

As I said. The young ones are very prone to being problem feeders for long periods of time and require assistance. Because the op does not have his profile filled out I don't know his abilities and or his training/experience. That would lead me to steer him towards albos. Hands should never HAVE to be put on an Arboreal, but if it is necessary it should be by someone with the necessary training as I already know your aware of sir.

End of last year. Expecting a litter in the next 30 to 60 days. Hopefully one of my others pairs will be ready this fall to put together as well.

I raised them from neos. They've bred extensively. What part of this needs clarification? Btw she IS expecting.
