It's the "Reptiles Annual" or "Reptiles USA 2005". It came out about four months ago. It can be purchased normally at stores that carry Reptiles magazine throughout the year. The link below is one place where you could purchase it if desired.

The article is a very basic husbandry article. I did get quite a few pictures in the article. I tried to find the magazine here this morning but have unfortunately misplaced it. It's great fun to write up stuff that is just in your head, include pictures of the kids and get it published. Great fun indeed.
There is only one thing that is wrong in the article. The editor changed one word. My word was "type" and it was changed by the editor to "Morph" completely changing the meaning. The sentence was regarding selective breeding and the fact that you can "make" just about any "type" of Boa you want. They changed it to "morph". A Morph cannot be made. A small thing perhaps, but something that is not correct. Oh well.
Overall, I think it was informative and great advertising for Boas! That's the main thing you know!
Thanks for the KUDOS all!

We are finishing up 7 new cage styles today. Each of these with multiple doors and dividers getting you more individual cage spaces for your buck. They are called "Town Houses" and one is a "Condo". I am sure they will be a big hit and will add to the diversity and never ending options that is Boaphile Plastics.

Thanks for the info on the mag. Jeff, We are always needing more of your cages here as well, will definately take a peek at the new ones you are making.

I got that one about a couple months ago here in Europe.
Nice reading, but nothing beats the first article (and subsequent edition in the Boa Constrictor manual book) a true revelation of sorts. At least for me :'(

That is saaaaahwweeeet!!! Im guessing the ones on the top are the "condos". They will be a great option for people wanting to house a higher number of smaller boas in a more see-able enclosure (versus a rack). I really like those.

Hey Jeff, just got back in and saw the new cages! Very Nice!!! Look forward to getting a few of those ordered! I enjoyed the pics in that article of the adult pearls and hypos! I love seeing how babies finally end up looking as grown-ups! Take care Jeff, Dan.
