Follow-up to SERIOUS INQUIRY for Male BOA
I must say that I was somewhat taken aback by some of the comments I received when I posted for a male boa to breed with a female BUT guess what? A number of you said I would not find what my friend was looking for in a suitable male.
Well, we did. Thanks to a supporter of this site, my friend Robert now has in his possession a beautiful male Columbian red-tail male; 5 years old 7.5 feet long. It was delivered to him on Thursday night and I handled the snake yesterday. We are very pleased and thanks to boa@fancynet.com for the sale. You did good, man! Thanks again for your help.

So, you ended up buying one after all? Much better way to go than a loan, so I am glad it worked out this way for you. Be sure to go thru the quarantine period before you attempt any breedings (it is for the best)

You got some of the comments you got because it was the truth frankly. Some very exerpienced people answered your post, people who actually own their own pairs.
And I agree with jason. Its good you bought your own.

I would also like to wish you the best of luck trying to breed a pair of Bci's without multiple males. 'Cause you'll need all the luck you can get.

Sometimes.
But sometimes not. Boa breeding is not exactly easy. Not at all. That's why most breeders have well over a dozen animals to compensate for the good percentage that don't go in a given year.
