In an odd turn of events, I got a call from a friend today, who works as a groomer at a pet store chain, offering me a surrendered Rosy Boa that "won't eat." He is now home with us!! This may or may not be the original one I hoped for in:

The friend who called me is NOT the woman who originally offered me the Rosy before.

I'll post pictures in this thread within 24 hours!

Yayyyyyyyyy! No longer crestfallen by the way.
