Afternoon all. I'm new to ssnakes and really need some help. Typical story. My son wanted an exotic pet and we finally gained a beautiful common boa almost three years ago. he was a rehome as his breeder had gone abroad to work so thought we were doing a good thing. My 14 year old has now lost interest with him. His last shed was just over 6 foot long. he eats well and does all he should but is not having any handling as my other two children are scared of him and i am super busy. I have tried advertising him for sale well before xmas (not prepared to sell him as a gift)- no response. I've rung rescue centres but all are unable to take him. I've contacted zoos but no luck but they did sugest I get in touch with a forum- never knew they existed. Has anyone any idea what else i can do? I hate Fred (i know!) not being handled. Hes starting to guard his viv when I feed him and if i get him out he hisses at me- something he never did before. All ideas or advice welcome. Please don't row at me for getting Fred- i berate myself enough. Thanking you all in advance.
