More boas!
I am certainly addicted to boas. These 2 boys bring the boa count to 6 (and counting)
First up is my new ATB dubbed 'Sully' I believe he's a 2011 tricolor and weighs 215g. I got him through Jesse at Slime Beards Next winter he will be paired with my 2011 red bicolor Crowley.
And my newest sweetheart 'Hercules' a 2010 hold back male (proven breeder) Suriname Bcc. I picked him up from Darryl and Nicole at Nagy Reptiles. He will eventually (4 years from now) be bred to my 2013 Suriname 'Ursula'
Enjoy!

Re: More boas!
I'm in Canada so shipping and paperwork may be a bit much considering there are breeders on that side of the border.
They can be a bit defensive

Re: More boas!
Pretty snakes!
How long are ATB's strike reach? I'd imagine it's hard to move them for maintenance even using hooks.

If he really wanted to he could launch a good 75% of his body. Usually when its a defensive strike they strike the first third (mine do anyways)
They hook pretty well and are usually content to sit on the hook without trying to climb it or eat me. There are specimens that can be handled I just don't own any lol

Re: More boas!
Very nice. Did you see Jesse's snakes on Snakebytes? A few local breeders had animals on there a few weeks ago.

I do for 2 reasons. 1- I love some of the snakes I see on his show and 2- so I am already familiar with the husbandry mistakes they make that we all talk about. I used to not watch then read "hey did you see the cage they had...blah...blah and I would end up watching it anyway
