HELP! What Kind of Boa???

I'll agree...very nice looking BCI. =)

Thanks everyone! I tried to figure it out myself just by looking at pictures but couldn't find any that matched all his traits enough to say for sure it was the same kind. I thought with the tons of different snake pics I would have to come across one snake that closely resembled him :) I am going to look also, but so do BCIs get bigger than a rainbow would? If that's the case then I guess I have some preparing to do! :p

Most BCI will stay smaller than some of the BCC, my BCI pair isn't much over 5 foot. The rainbow boas tend to be a longer slender snake compared to the BCI's so I wouldn't worry to much. Not knowing the feeding history so it is a guess but to me that one has lost the lengthy subadult look that most boas get so you maybe looking at about the adult size...but there are always exceptions.

Yes, it will get bigger than a rainbow! Let me see if I can find FrankyKeno's pic of her female RTB.... *searches*


Here we go

Miss Tequila was on her very best behaviour. Sherrie said if she'd only had a bigger purse, she'd have snuck out the door with her LOL.

Just to give you a size reference, that couch they are sitting on is 7.5 feet long.
