    Sniper's Dinner.

    I fed the big fella the other night and ended up with some decent pictures.

    I enjoy when he feeds from a perch.



    This was a large live rat that the royal refused. He hit this thing hard. It was over quickly.


    He never came off the perch.


    He went into shed a few day after this.





    Closer up.


    And a lot closer up though out of sequence.


    Thanks for looking.

    Nice pics of Sniper living up to his name.
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    Pure locality animals are like morphs IMO. They can be so stunningly beautiful.


    They vary in color depending on the lighting.



    Clouds and green grass make this guy look electric.


    Even in direct sunlight he pops.




    Anyhow, a Barranquilla, Colombian boa, is a great choice. I obviously love them. They combine traits of both BCC and BCI according to Gus Rentfro and Vin Russo, yet they are hardy and forgiving.

    I Think you should get one LOL!
