Male Hypo Boa just arrived.. Absolutely Stunning

Hey guys just got a 3 foot ( a little over ) Male Hypo BCI delivered to me. He is gorgeous with an awesome clean pattern and in amazing health. as you can see his tail is beautiful! I've never had a boa so docile and gentle. Let me know what you think about him i can't wait to see him as an adult!

The breeder i got him from told me he was just under 2 years old, and very big for his age. i've never seen a boa get this big at this age ESPECIALLY a male. this is just from my experience though let me know if this happens here and there.

Also he told me he was a Hypo, but i'm pretty sure they are also called salmons? let me know if there's a difference and if there is, which is mine?

and i'd love some name suggestion!!

I like it!

Not a snake name, but for some reason I'm thinking Dwight. Kinda fits for a hypo I guess.

That little dot right under his pupil reminds me of Alice Cooper. Couldn't think of a cool name associated with Alice though. :-)

The size sounds about right to me. My girl hit 3' at 10-11 months old.

Re: Male Hypo Boa just arrived.. Absolutely Stunning

Very nice! I have a hypo male boa myself and love him. It could be the pics but mine looks a lot redder. And I believe hypo and salmon are basically the same thing.

Be careful with that nix you made up. It is usually mixed 64 p water to 1 p nix. What you have is very concentrated and could hurt your snake.
