Well I did it now...
Went out and got myself a baby female BCI, not my first snake but my first boa! She's nothing fancy, I'll post pictures later because I'm letting her settle down a bit before handling her again. I will say this though she is pretty aggressive, very hissy, and I've been tagged twice already. I chalk it up to her being a baby and hopefully with frequent handling she will calm down. I guess time will tell but I'm pretty excited none the less.

Congratulations on your Boa!
You are in for a different kind of enjoyment. Besides having a garbage disposal for your BP(s).

The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

How old is he? He looks pretty solid and thick! Yeah, feed him and just don't handle him until you have gotten 3 or 4 meals into him. Just spot clean and change the water.

Those pictures aren't of mine. Mine is young, only about a foot and a half long. I haven't weighed her yet. She hisses but don't look as defensive as the one pictured.

Not at all.
The first pic is the last bite. The second pic is the periscope neck stretch to finish swallowing.

Well I couldn't wait, decided to
take her out today and see how she did. No hissing, not snappy, and seemed pretty relaxed as I held her, very curious. So I hope we're on an upward trend and the anger/defensive issues was just from the stress of bringing her home.

Sounds like all is well. Babies can be hissy, snappy, all of the above. Most will calm down nicely.
