Hello everyone!

I'm new here and would like to show off my lovely 2014 Kahl Sunglow. It took me about a year to decide that I wanted to bring her home, as I was on the fence about getting a BCI. She was also very nippy and often sang me the song of her people if I tried to take her out to handle her. I was eyeing her brother, an albino as males are smaller, but I was in love with her colour. I eventually took the plunge and brought her home with me. She's now tame and my favourite snake to bring out to 'chill' with.

She's looking good! Females don't get too much bigger on average, but the potential is definitely there. Males can also get a decent size, but the females will be heftier (usually).

She's looking good, she's kept a nice pale background color.

wow, she has great colours! i like the shape of her head too, long and pointy. I find boa's have the best overall body shape

LOL, as she's only on rat fluffs, it might take her a while

Thank you! I'm pretty pleased that she's kept pale and not gone too yellow.

I love love love the patterns of BCO but they get sooo big =(

Oddly I started out not very fond of boa's shape. I like long and slender snakes like colubrids and boas are about is "chunky" as I'm going to go. However I now find I really adore the shape and pattern of boas heads!

Thanks =D

I'm torn right now. I feel like she's the perfect size snake for tv snuggles. She just relaxes and falls asleep on me when I watch tv. When she's bigger it will be more difficult to do, but I'm also kind of excited to see her as a big girl!

Thank you! As far as I know, she doesn't have any jungle in her. Her siblings had more 'bowties' but I do agree that Nova has a pretty clean pattern. Here is a photo of her when she arrived in the store:

Thank you! I tend to be attracted to brightly coloured snakes. But BCO are drop dead gorgeous too <3
