I took pics in 2 different light scenarios because its very difficult to get an accurate photo of the snakes colors.

Overall, I'm absolutely thrilled with this snake... I'm glad I started getting into boas and I realize what I've been missing all these years.
Better late then never though!

wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

I wish they made dwarf snow boas. I don't have room for boids that can potentially get 7 - 10 ft.

She was born in April.
She has super fast metabolism. I fed her a mouse yesterday, and the lump in her stomach is already gone. I'd say it was medium sized mouse, bigger then what I would all a hopper but not a huge adult either.

This is my favorite pic, I think I came as close as possible to getting what color it is in person

I would switch her to rat pups or small weaned rats. My girl was also born in April and is around your snake's size and it's the perfect size for her. Medium/small mice seem a bit small.

Agreed. Plus, your snake will need to eat rats eventually so why not make the switch easier?

I just took the snake home Sunday. I was really surprised how easily it took the mouse, it barely made a dent. Next time I feed her I'll def. try a weaned rat.

There's no need to feed big meals, just enough to leave a lump after you feed it.

Beautiful snake, you should take black light pics.

Thanks for the replies everyone.
I'm really excited to see how she grows up. Not sure if I'll look to breed her or just keep her as a pet. Either way I have a few years to decide on it.
