Even BIG BCI's can have nice looking colors.
Here are some pics of Xena she is 9'-6" long and 60 lb.
See even big females can keep there colors. She just shed the other day for me.
I am so happy I pick this one up this year. I can not wait to see what her babies will look like.
I have not decided if I will breed her with a normal male or one of my striped males this year.
Take care
Tom

She really is pretty Tom, I just can't get over the size of her! What a monster.
The babies are bound to look nice no matter what you do but what might be even nicer is the number of babies she could give you. You should start a pool. lol!

Very nice Tom. With a female that big, you should get a 40 litter, no problem.

She's really beautiful! It's tough to find boas that retain their light colouration in to adulthood. Best of luck with her.

Very Nice...How do you feed her? Because my BCI he's about 4foot long, I feed him in a shoe box, and I know that in due time, he's going to be as long as yours. So what do you do when you feed her, where do you place her?

Paolo,
Big boas shouldn't be moved around for feeding. Not only is it unecessary and risks reguritation to the snake, but it also becomes dangerous for the handler to be moving a powerful animal in feeding mode.

Yeah, I wouldn't want to get near that big girl when she's in feeding mode, I much prefer having the cage door in between me and the snake.
I have at least one boa that I know for sure I could never feed outside of the cage because she bites anything that moves from the time she smells food until long after she's been fed.
