Caved

My boyfriend and I got this little BCI today! It's our first boa, aside from an ATB I once had. Anyways, it's so cute! Thanks to Port Credit!! I have had three other snakes from PCPC that have all done extremely well, so I am sure this one will be the same.

There was quite a few there, but I liked this one when I saw it. We looked at a few more, but she was still my favorite.

On the photo side of things, the lighting was funny when I took the pics. Some a little darker, some seem a little lighter. She is pretty much just in between if there is any variation at all.

Congrats Marisa! I agree with everyone else, you can't have just one. Now all you need to do is replace all those smelly colubrids with boas and you'll be set!

Thanks peoples.

I like this snake because it caught my eye. I bought it one of those newer "smokey" colored rubbermaids. A "clear" black color with a clear smokey window on the lid as well. It's neat.

It's been cruising around the entire time checking every millimeter out and doing boa things.

It's really neat to have something totally new to you! And I am already planning on another one or so, because one day Matt will be producing nice babies from his boa army and I'll have to get in on that So get on it!

Beautiful snake, nice and clean, light coloured saddles and lots of pink... that's how a boa is supposed to look! I bet that one will develop a lot of red colouration and have a nice "pastelish" look to her.

Congrats!
