Well, the little brown boa I got on the 14th had his first shed with me a night or two ago, and to say the least, I was blown away. His background color went from a light brown to a grey that fades to brown as you go further down him. It seems like a bit of his pink/orange tints are gone as well.

Do you guys think he's going to keep lightening up like this, or do you think maybe he will get back to how he was when I got him once his skin isn't so fresh? Here are some of the pics I could get that actually show his new color. :p

Thanks in advance for looking:)

This pic kinda messes up his color but it gives an alright size reference.

Thank you!!:):):) He has quite the personality, that second pic is his "don't get the camera any closer" pose. :p

Thanks everyone.. I think he was an amazing find, especially for coming from a petshop:) This morning I awoke to the other boa in shed, if the results are anything like what happened with this guy then I will surely have some pics up for you guys:) I'll end up posting them here in this thread :p
