Costarrican Rainbow Boa (Epicrates maurus)
Hey! Well, some of you already met me at the introduction I posted a few days ago, now it's time you meet Morella, my Costarrican Rainbow! I bought this from the only authorized breeder in my country, she was about 3 months old when I bought her, I haven't kept her for a long while, she is a very recent acquisition actually! Anyways, she is the most sweet and docile snake ever! I really enjoy handling her since she just likes to curl up in my hands and once in a while explore the surroundings! I'm feeding her once a week with large meals for faster growth!

So, here are the pictures!

She looks awesome, Roberto! Just be careful about overfeeding, as rainbows are susceptible to becoming overweight in captivity.

Thanks man! And ok! I'll pay close attention to that! Actually I'm not feeding her until I found feces on the viv!

Re: Costarrican Rainbow Boa (Epicrates maurus)
Great pictures! Thanks for sharing. I agree with Cliff that she would probably be better off with slightly smaller food.

Thanks! Love her too! hahaha and actually I'm giving small white mice, I think about 2-3cm width... I wouldn't give her a mice I know she couldn't eat, so don't worry 'bout that!

You are very welcome! And I'll really keep that in mind, since all your advises are the reason why I'm here! I'll be posting more pictures soon!
