WOW! These are such amazing looking animals. I can't believe someone let them get into this condition. Insane! Good on you for taking them in and if they make it you'll have a couple of sweet looking boas.

Re: Surrenders - Graphic

A comparison pic between my albino and this one (about a week after I got it, not current)


It drinks like a fish all the time.


Look at this guy/girl! It's like night and day!!
After 4 meals (2 mice, 1 mouse, med rat, lg rat), it's improved drastically! Visible ribs are almost gone.


The suri is doing just as good, just didn't take a pic because it had pooped and I didn't have time to clean it that day and didn't want to take a pic of poop. Although, it wouldn't be too bad of an idea - because even it's poops are looking good! First poop they each had was a little iffy and not the best looking - now they're normal looking (stinky) poops!

I'll post the suri soon. But here's an older pic in the mean time! Second feeding. It dropped the mouse so I went in to pick it up and man, the suri's feeding response is crazy... it's normally pretty docile. But if there's any sort of 'food' smell in the room, it's hunting time and it's super active and looking around. Tasty glove.

Glad to see they're doing so much better in your care. Those original pictures are horrible.

Re: Surrenders - Graphic

Good thing you did there. Great job. Why the hell do people let their animals get like this? If someone isn't going to a) learn how to care the animal, and b) not put any effort into providing proper conditions nor try to see things from the animal's perspective, then get a damn house plant or maybe a collection of shiny rocks or something. Sorry, those pictures aggravate the hell out of me.

Sad to see animals in that state, but I am glad that they're in your care now. They're beauties too! Maybe you could toss one my way? hahah

Re: Surrenders - Graphic

@MM1: Hey now... plants have feelings too, they shouldn't be subjected to neglect too! A pet rock is suitable for those kind of people, if that. And I hear ya, when I got them, I was really angry too. The guy said they "needed some TLC" but I never would have imagined they'd be that bad.

Here's an updated pic of the suri! Notice how you can't see it's spine anymore! :P


You can see that little bit of shed still life on teh head/neck area. That was really tough to get off so I just left it. Got most of it off and the important bits like the eyes.

Today's feeding day, so everyone is getting noms. One more happy meal for them and another leap towards a healthy life for them!

Wow, those poor sweet snakes.

Thank goodness you got them in time! Kudos for doing such a wonderful job with these two! Keep up the good work; it looks like you'll have some wonderful scaly friends for a long time to come!
