    New Pic's with question

    Dont get me wrong,I love my boa but.........I like his color better when he is cool because he has a beige/light tan color instead of this color...........



    what are the chance's he'll turn the lighter color???







    Its been over 16 years since I have had to take care of a snake and I want to make sure I do everything correct. If I had not taken this snake, it would have been killed.

    Nice lookin snake! I have never heard of one getting lighter with age, only darker (brownish). I however am not an expert by any means. I only read a A LOT of posts on the forums.

    Boas get darker while they age.

    Like I said, I love his color inside the house.But not to about the outside color (so I'll just keep him in)

    But for some reason, he always looks darker in pictures anyway

    Boas also go through light stages and dark stages and so Chance could just be going through a dark phase right now!

    Bottom line: He chose you for his owner Sherri and you have really stepped up to the plate with him. He is a very handsome boa
