hi, I've spent the last few weeks building tanks and this weekend i managed to fill them, a guy a knew was moving house and desperately needed to sell two snakes so i happily did so, they are both about 7 feet in length one male and one female and are very friendly. I was just wondering if you had any ideas what boas they are, i have been told daisy the female is common and tim is peruvian but i'm still not sure, there are also some pics of our baby frankie.
I would also love your comments on our family.
Thanks for your advice

Better pics will follow but only had them a day

nice boas:) unfortunately i think you have yourself three common BCIs there. Tim really doesnt look like a true red tail. they are still great snakes and i hope you enjoy yours as much as i enjoy mine. good luck with them!

I'm really happy with what i've got and i'm really enjoying them, thanks for the advice and opinion. I hope to breed daisy and tim quite soon so it will be interesting what young we get, as daisy is quite yellow with pink flecks and tim is very dark. Thanks again and more opinions would be great.

Nice boas.

Are you still using astro-turf in the cages?

Thanks for the comment, they have both just finished there first shed cycle with us so loads more pics will be coming soon, still use astroturf with the big ones but our baby frankie is on orchid bark, we find the turf easy to clean and it looks nice too. Would you say it is a problem and what would you recomend.
