    Sharp Albino Bci getting some color

    These pics were taken with my phone so they're not that great. He was also in shed during these pics which I wasn't aware of at the time.

    This one is from Feb. when I first got him:


    These next ones were taken on 7-15:




    First time in the grass:


    On a 2x4 (size reference):

    Also I've been thinking he might be getting a little on the chubby side, let me know what you think!

    Very pretty. Looks like he enjoys the sun and being outside.


    Don't know enough about boas to comment on if he "looks fat".

    Would putting him in a dress and seeing if he looks fat in it work?

    Feeding usually every 7 days sometimes 10. Usually 18g mice but the ones I have now are mostly about 20g. I'm thinking I should put him on 10 days just wanted some more opinions before I did.

    He enjoyed it at first but it was hot and he was pissy by the end, as for the dress he would probably tag me for that! Lol

    Feeding schedule seems fine. And he doesn't look fat to me. He still has that square body shape that you want to see in a boa. Wouldn't want him any heavier though.

    I agree that he doesn't look fat, but he certainly is growing quickly! I would probably go to feeding every 10 days. Many breeders start their babies right at 10 days so it won't hurt him one bit to do that.

    Thanks guys, Ill go with every 10 days he has grown a good bit since I've had him but he was only 78g when I got him in Feb, and born June 8th 2012. I'm guessing he was on a maint. diet with the breeder.
