Here's a pic of a boa I had. het VPI T+ albino. (they come out as a cool caramel color)

I had a couple cool breeding projects lined up for him and a few others, but it never worked out.

Yeah he is healthy and definitely not bony. During the summer he eats 2 at a time. Tried 2 yesterday but he only ate one. Had to toss the other over the fence into the greenbelt. Owl territory

yeah you can tell he looks good, so I wouldn't worry about it.
balls can be picky eaters.

I'd probably opt to feed him once every two weeks, instead of two at a time (to limit the stretching; can damage intestines sometimes)

but sometimes you gotta take the window :shrug:

bottom line he looks healthy so what you're doing is working :thumbup:


It took me a bit of digging through old ass threads to find that pic, and man what a flashback.  super cool to read stuff from right when I registered :lol:

Very cool snake, I'm want to get a western hognose soon. They don't get big and they are cute and friendly

Nice boa! Looking very healthy indeed. What did you do with him?

I'm looking to move into larger snakes, such as boas some time in the future.

JY - hognose are cool. I haven't seen that coloration on one I don't think. It's also been a long time since I was around them though.

They have such funny little faces :lol:

EW- Long story, there was a fire at my place, all the animals made it out, but I didn't have a place to live, and all the housing I had for them burned and melted so I had to give them to a friend.
Planned to get them back one day but we lost touch, and I also can't really keep them anymore.
the way it goes.

he got to about 3-3 1/2 feet when I gave him up, another female was about 4+, and my first female I got was nearing 6 feet.

Boas are probably my favorite snake out there.

My daughter first wanted a snake after holding a 4 foot female boa. It was so friendly and she couldn't stop talking about snakes for 3 weeks. Wife said no way but then we broke up and I got her the ball python within a week. LOL

Got the snake, 80 gallon tank, 2 hides, nice water dish, heat pad and lamp for 80$ off craigslist. Buddy moved in with his dad that was deathly afraid of snakes, so it was the get rid of it price.

:lol:

a classic sequence of events.

glad you were in the right place at the right time.
How old is the snake?


I wish I could get a hold of my friend and see how the snakes are doing. My first female was gonna be a big girl man. She was about 3 when I let her go, and on track to be in the 7-8 foot range I think. Another female I had had some wild genetics, and was going to make some incredible snakes down the line. had some cool plans for that one.

I'm sorry to hear that. You should definitely try to reconnect with that person :thumbup:

yeah he probably won't get any longer, especially for a male. girth is always changing, but getting thicker is good!

honestly I miss my tarantula collection a lot too.

between my roommate and I, we had some cool ones.

Argh tarantulas would be too intimidating for me. :lolwut:

Maybe a red leg at the most but I couldn't imagine ever getting them out.

My old ball was the same. She was also really picky, she would only eat white rats haha anything thast was blotched or dark she wouldnt bother with. She would eat every 2 weeks for the most part sometimes once a month but would take up to 5 months off food. Read about it and is aparently normal. Especially in the winter months.
The one I have now is a beast haha he east every two weeks and never rejects which is nice :smile:

One of mine didn't used to like black mice either! But now it doesn't matter she eats both.

Not sure. I'm gonna guess yes. But I really need them sexing to be sure :thumbup:

I say male because they tend to be smaller
