Picking up a BIG female tomorrow

I found someone that is looking to rehome a big female bp. The lady says she is about 6 foot long and 15 years old. I couldn't imagine rehomeing a pet after 15 years, but I have no idea what her situation is.

At 15 years old...could she still be breedable or do they lose interest in reproduction once they get older. Either way...we will give her great home for the remainder of her life.

Well I hope is not a Boa or a Rectic and she is calling it a BP. As long as she is healty I dont see why she wouldnt be breedable, but I dont know realy, just my opinion.

I saw pics! She's a BIG beautiful female BP! I can't verify the exact size through the photo, but she is big and looked to be at a nice weight!

As far as being breedable, I have read in a book that there is a documented case of a female 30+ years old producing babies.

It is my sincere hope that unforseen circumstances force the rehoming of a well cared for and treasured pet, and not a neglected, ill, or problem animal.

If you get her, please post pictures.

I read in a book that a 40+ year old female laid 9 viable eggs. That's amazing. Our number one priority is to give her a great home though.

Edit: I'm leaving right now to go get her. It's an hour drive each way, but I'll try to get some pics up later this evening!

Okay, your times up. Stop playing and post some pictures. :D

Well one hour drive each way, so 2 hours just driving. He is probably still over there lol. I realy want to see this 15 year old BP too!

A family friend of mine has one that's just a few inches short of 6ft and shes about 10 years old. Shes big and gorgeous! Cant wait to see the one hes getting :)

Well, we are home and she is awesome! A rough measurement puts her around 5'-6"...plus or minus an inch or so. I'll measure her and take some pics after she settles (hopefully later tonight).

PICTURES!!! :rage:
