Yes I have a nabire locality type. Very similar to sorongs really. On average probably not as docile as an aru, but not as agressive as a biak. Its worth remembering that chondros are really display snakes so shouldn't be handled on a regular basis anyway.

Here's mine;



cheers

No problem. If you do get one only go for a genuine captive bred specimen because wild caught and farmed ones are more likely to have health issues.

I think you'll find that most of CPR's chondros are farmed imports from indonesia. Definitely better than WC, but probably not as robust as UK captive bred.

Just to reitterate...CB all the way.

Wild caught and Captive farmed...very bad where chondros and beginners are concerned.
