Sadly oddball is not as active as he once was, I see him post about once every few weeks.
Maybe link to this thread in a comment on his profile.
I got hooked after seeing the video on Brave Wilderness channel. But sadly I don't think I'll ever get to keep any those noodles

Flint town!
If you guys still want Caecilianes then undergroundreptiles has them in rarely heres a link https://undergroundreptiles.com/shop/giant-mexican-caecilian/
But more often then not they have this amphibian called an Amphiuma in more regularly https://undergroundreptiles.com/shop/amphiuma/ also I heard that elephant trunk snakes are super hard to keep in captivity how will you plan on keeping and more as of breeding them???
Those look similar. Never paid that much though! The Mexican caecilian looks a little different the two toed amphibian looks more like the ones I've kept except mine had no toes.

I think they're asking that much for the size not because of rarity.

The problem is not everyone lives in north America or Europe. So I'm out of options unless I ask someone to custom order them for me and that's a shot in the dark, I've never seen them before here and pretty sure shops aren't that familiar with them or have sources. Same goes for many fish/reptile species.

Im looking for some of these guys now. Wish i could find them. I finally have the means to try to breed them again. I owned a small colony of them long ago and i absolutely loved them. Really wanting to find more. Anyone have any plugs for them in the US?
