Hello,

Who breeding this species, and for what price I could buy him ?

Regards,

Mateusz Zielinski

I have never heard of anyone breeding A. hispida in captivity. Very difficult species to keep.

For sure some guys bred em in the past , when i´m right a German and one guy more bred em.
I read an article about that in german in the past.
Actually i don´t know if any cb´s get in the market .
I kept some wc´s in the past ,but without the right "snails" there should be no good change to keep em for long.


Bye the way Mateusz are you able to share more pictures and informations about the animal on your avatar ?

Robert Meidinger has bred them.
There was a german article published in Elaphe a few years back.

Meidinger, R. 2000. Erfolgreiche Haltung und Erstnachzucht von Atheris hispidus, der Rauhschuppigen Buschviper. Elaphe 8 (4): 5-10

Well that is awesome to hear that there has been success breeding them. Does anyone have access to the article?

Ok, Thanks !

@Ralph Tümmers - In avatar I have Parias sumatranus, more informations you find here :

Hello guys,
yeah right Robert was the austrian breeder
I discussed it already yesterday on the phone.

Mateuzs ,maybe we understand us wrong ,i know what species it is .
But you use it as Avatar ,so i´m interested if it´s your sumatranus
I know some keepers of that species and saw em ,maybe 10 years ago the first time at a friend´s place next to me .
