Not a one hander.

[Gio]

I posted a thread under my retic, Wallace's progression thread talking about how easy, usually, he is to handle. He's a 7 footer, maybe a tad more and will be two years old June 1st.

The SD X Dwarf genetics keep him lean and agile. So much so that I can easily handle him with one hand.

Here's the post in that thread.

Now by contrast here is Sniper, a shorter snake, but with Red Tail Boa girth!

This guy is coming up on 6 years old and he's a big fella these days.



This snake is in excellent shape and in very good health. He takes the winter off feed, like Gus Rentfro and Vin Russo recommend and not only grew, he grew again once feeding resumed this spring.



When put next to most snakes of the same length, the boa constrictor will show the most power, dense physique and be the strongest pound for pound.


While the retic didn't dwarf my hand, this guy's body is on par with the size of my lower arm.


It's a good think there are no rules about picking favorites in a collection, and maybe there is a reason most of us have more than one snake. I would be hard pressed not to tell people, boa constrictors are one of the best pet snakes on the planet.



I love this guy!



Always entertaining too. Thanks for looking!
