I realised, it has been over a year since Rukia had a proper picture of her taken that was more than just "A snapshot"..! She shed the night before and I took her outside for some pictures. It seems only yesterday that she was a tiny sprout that tried to eat me at a very regular interval. Just look at this spitfire baby shot! Well 'baby'... She was about 6 months on this picture. 1,5ft long and still eating small mice. She felt very intimidating, adorable!
And look at this girl now, 4 years old and all grown up! In my eyes she only got prettier! She's about 5ft now but I haven't measured her in a while, still not a really big boa but then again she is a pure dwarf. I wouldn't say she has learned to love me yet, but she is no where near as nippy as she was as a baby. Only starts to nip when I'm in her terrarium for too long, or when I have touched her too much for her taste. Great animal to own, she hasn't had a bad shed in her life, and has never turned down a meal of any kind!
When she tenses up she gets a little skin flap next to her head, pretty good tell that she might nip.
