New Peruvian long tail
Hi there
I picked up my new little guy today he is a boa constrictor longicauda,his parent are both German imports from seperate litters I've got his certificate and a copy of there's
When I got him first out he showed no sign of aggression and was nice an inquisitive even after getting him home he was fine no hissing, I snapped a couple of pics before settling him in, not sure of a name yet
He weighed 179g so not bad saying he is one in April

Re: New Peruvian long tail
Looks a super little guy. How about Paddington, because he came from Peru as well.

Re: New Peruvian long tail
Looks great man, I think I've said this before but these are by far my favorite boas, your enclosure looks pretty cool too (from what I can see haha)

Re: New Peruvian long tail
Nice addition! Can't wait to see this one as an adult, they got the absolute best color changes of all the boa constrictors.

Re: New Peruvian long tail
What a lovely looking snake! Do you plan on breeding him later on?

Re: New Peruvian long tail
Just had my new little guy out again and he's so far really tame and inquisitive I've fed him today and straight away struck and coiled and ate
It nicely,I think it's always great wait of your shoulders when they have there first meal with you,I feel it's like they have settled in nicely with you

Re: New Peruvian long tail
That is one beautiful snake. How are your shelves attached?, are they screwed from the outside?
