Re: New to boas but not snakes need help with Young red tail
I feel like it's a bit small for adult mice, hoppers should work for awhile. You want to see a bulge with no scale separation - you shouldn't be able to see the thin skin in between the scales immediately after they swallow it.
That's roughly the size my sunglow was when I got her, maybe slightly longer at most. It shouldn't be long before it's big enough for adult mice, but at its current size I would assume hoppers would be more appropriate.
It definitely looks heavily Central American influenced to me, but that's still small for a 2 year old. The people you got it from probably got mixed up on the age, it looks perfectly healthy. Not underweight or even dehydrated, which is common.
