Pics of my new girl

I just pick up this female red tail (I hope my other one is a male!). She's over 6½' and has a really sweat temper. It hard to tell from that pics but she has some dark pink, almost purple, all the way trought her side. I don't have much light in that room to take pics. And sorry about the black photoshop face, it was a good pic for the snake but about the worst for me!

Thanks everyone!

Actually, it's probably just the pics, the tail is normal looking, even a little too dark to be as nice as other redtail. I'll take some pics later but there's nothing special here.

Very nice! I thought you were wearing a hat too, until I looked closer.
So, is she going to get much bigger than that? I've been tentatively looking into getting a boa of some sort (either a central american or a columbian..) and I don't really know how large they are supposed to get. I've been doing research on the net, but I can't get a very clear picture of just how big and powerful these guys will be as adults.

She's a very beautiful snake. I love the tail pattern!

I should'nt have mention the photoshop corection, I agree it does look like a hat!

Tammy, she will probably grow bigger, but it's hard to say how big she will be since I never saw the parents, she was wc as a baby. I've seen a 11ft male and he was impressive. I'm not sure about the average but BCC grow bigger than BCI. Central american are amoung the smalest of the bci I think. Some line of hog island also stay small (5-6 ft)

If you what to see pics of the big one, try this website: www.mccarthyboas.com

Thanks for the king word! The little one I got earlier is doing great so I might try to breed them next year if everything goes well (and if it's a male!!!).

Thanks Greg, I only have part of my animals on the gallery here, I have all of them on my website, and some videos also www.hissnherps.ca Unfortunatly everything is in french.
