New hypo img boa

[richardhind]

Hi there
I've eventually got my new hypo img boa,she's got some dark colour on her already and great tail colour,she is one on. 12th April so not a bad size
Thinking of calling bet medusa as she pretty much hissed for the two hour drive lol I've snapped a couple of pics befor settling in

Pretty! I really love the black devils out of all the IMG. She does look like she loves you so much already lol

[richardhind]

Thanks pysrocke the colouration is great on her alread

Thanks riddick,she really wasn't happy lol,I'm hopeing she settles down a bit

Thanks el ziggy,I'm really pleased with her,saw her parents and her litter mate the black devil he was so stunning

Very pretty snake. Quite some boa collection you've got going now. Impressive...

[richardhind]

Thanks Danny,just hope she settles down a bit she was such a grump yesterday

[Psyrocke]

No problem, it also helps that orange is one of my favorite colors but she is very stunning.

Cool paint job! Orange is one of my favorite colors also... It's very spiritually effective... That is why the Tibetan monks wear orange robes...

[richardhind]

Thanks satva it's quite a contrast compared to her dark body that's for sure

[Tsubaki]

Awesome looking boa! :)

[richardhind]

Thank so tsubaki,just hope she settles down a bit and doesn't want to eat me any more lol

[BillyCostume]

She's is gorgeous. I love IMG's I hope to get one in the future :)

[richardhind]

Cheers billy ,took me ages to track one down

[Andy_G]

Very cool IMG, Richard. I'm certain it'll calm down once settled in and after a few meals.

[richardhind]

thanks Andy,hopefully she will:)

[bigsnakegirl785]

lol Gotta love the hissers. Took Tirel a few months to calm down, and even now she'll give me a small hiss on a small occasion if I take too long getting her out. They think they're so intimidating but they're actually adorable. haha

[richardhind]

She's not struck at the glass for the past couple of days and I've slid the glass a. Bit just to stoke her and start Tap training her a bit and she hasn't hissed or pretty much moved so I'm hopeful it was just the stress of moving house she was just in a rack and seems to love to climb her branches and sit on the shelf looking out

If not I'll rent her to the fire birgade to help put out fires lol

[richardhind]

Well medusa has shed this week and was looking really dark,seems a lot calmer and been able to handle her without hissing so far a couple of times, I've kept up stroking her also with out any moving away from the glass aswell now so I'm hopeful she's on the right track,I love the speckles under her neck

[dannybgoode]

Really nice snake that. Super looks...

[richardhind]

Thanks Danny
She was only one last week so I reckon she's going to be really dark by the time she's adult

[richardhind]

well i keep trying to settle her down by holding and tap training her,i think its working until i put her back in her viv lol,then she starts with her striking and hissing again
