I know that they build up to eat big items, that's why you see 1 adult and 3 hoppers...
That time it happened not to have one more adult...
Lab rats are a bit rare here in Greece...hopefully i'll try to get a few and starting breeding them.
I will need them cause my Boas are getting bigger and my Ball also fed by guinea pigs the last 2 months.

...Yeap, i feel lucky, here is the story of that hypo female:
I had order a Bci to the petstore that i am client 4 years ago.
All the luck was on my side (for once more ) because casually, i went to the store to buy something.
The girl said that the Bcis just had arrived.
When i went to the basement to where the Herps section is, i saw the baby boas and from the 15 specimens, only 1 was hypo!
I had ordered 2 so i pick up the hypo and another one.
The guy there (which i know very well) didn't want to sell the hypo to me, one girl said to him not to give anything until she pass from the store...
Well, i said that i am client so many years and of course i bought the (rare in Greece) hypo...
'
Ok, i'll post some pics when i go home, now i'm at work (if i am working is another issue)

She is a real beauty indeed! Wow and a pet store find at that... lucky!

Eep. I'm gonna have to agree with everyone else on this one. Boas are made to eat one big meal at a time, in the wild they don't put back four little meals in a sitting, just one.
