Saw an add on a reptile sales group on Facebook about 2 boas for sale CB08.
And both have been microchipped. Can you get that done? Any advantages from it? Or is it not worth it?
Just a curious question. Not looking into it. Would any of you get yours done? |

Dumeril's boas need to be microchipped due to being CITES listed.
You can get snakes microchipped an theres also now a new smaller chip, im thinking of getting mine done at some point |

CITES is the convention on international trade in endangered species.
emperer scorpion's have been CITES annex II for a while annex II mean's they keep a close eye on how many are collected/imported an it was CITES who put the importation ban in place due to low number's in the wild.
here's their webiste.

dummeril's boa's an some species of tortoise need to be CITES registered an microchipped to prove that their not WC.
if you were to have one of these animal's but didn't have the paperwork you are fine to own them but you cant sell or trade them all you can do is give them away |
