    My first Colombian Boa
    I can see why people rave about how woderful they are!

    I am totally in love with him.....:love:

    [sorry about the "crazy/changing hairstyle"...he did that. we went into PetCo to get him some things and he on insisted "being a hat"]

    He is utterly stuffed full of personality.

    He kept politely close around my shoulders as we shopped, almost as if he knew he might freak people out but as soon as someone came up to me and wanted to see him, he'd just telescope on out and say "Hey there! Howya doin''?"

    Such a sweet, friendly, wonderfully charming snake.

    The seller thinks he's about 5 years old.

    Being somewhat smallish, he's just the right size for me.

    :)

    I'm hooked.

    :D

    [sorry I don't know what "type" he is besides Colombian or whether he's "high" or "low" quality....I don't care...love is blind] LOL

    IMO, he's a "peanut butter and chocolate Boa".

    :P

    He's wonderful, and a big kudos to you for using the correct spelling of ColOmbian! I can't tell you how much of a peeve it is for me to see ColUmbian all the time...lol

    When I was 15 year old freshman, I won my HS spelling bee.

    I'm totally OCD about correct spelling....LOL

    They sure do!

    Getting them to "go back to bed" is a real trip, though.

    As soon as I walked into the room where his enclosure was, he started pitching a fit, twisting a bunch of my hair into a lock-hold knot, grabbing the door handle with his tail, hitting me in the butt with the door and when all the histrionics failed, he made a leap for "daddy's" arm and started to climb him to prevent "mom" from making him go beddy bye.

    I swear it's worse than putting a squirmy 3 year old brat to bed....LOL

    Arrgh!

    I misspelled "wonderful" by skipping the "n".

    I have to go get out the Webster's and do 2 hours of penance, now....:D
