We currently have a 2 yr. old RTB and a 2 tr. old BP. We prefer to get them as babies just to be sure of their temperament since we have 3 children in the house. I recently finished my 3rd custom enclosure and was itching for an occupant. I ran across a CL ad for a 5 1/2-6 ft Columbian. I had seen the ad several times before and the price kept dropping. I figured sooner or later this poor girl was gonna go to some loser. She wasn't exactly what I was looking for but at least if I took her she would be properly cared for. Well when I got there the girl was walking around in the yard with her on her neck. When I got a closer look it was very plain to see she was in blue. Her eyes were completely clouded so I figured the girls judgement was too. Anyway the snake was very docile and not even the least bit head shy. After I got her home (almost 2 hrs) she was still calm but vey curious. Got her settled in and got a few pics. The post shed pics should be coming soon. Quick side note before everyone panics, the heat lamp was only inside for a quicker warmup while I supervised.http://i969.photobucket.com/albums/ae180/gonhuntun71/HPIM3005.jpg

I just got three very large boas that were apparently on CL as well. (Still not sure how the guy got my number, but whatever...) She's a gorgeous gal! Good job on picking her up and giving her a good home! That's a nice looking setup! :)
