Can’t wait to meet the little guy. No idea what to name him yet... Gordon? Leonard? Albert? No clue haha. I’ll start him a thread when he gets here

Thank you bcr! I recently came across a 22year old Polaroid of me at the Stl zoo holding a boa, then came across this little dude and knew that I would cave in and get him. Seemed like the planets aligned or something haha

Best of the best, Anything that Gus had a hand in is top notch. Congrats my man. Huge pickup😊💪🏻👍😎

What a great pick up , congratulations :D Make sure to get a great picture of it's mustache when it comes (Love boa mustaches) :P

Very beautiful, congratulations. He’s very nice. I like the high widows peak on his saddles and his overall pattern. Love the color of his tail. Thanks for sharing.

Grats on joining the club. And it took you long enough. The 'snake hoarder' was getting close to selling some blood to poach that boy from you if you didnt bite the bullet lol. :D

Haha, well I'm glad you grabbed it because i really didnt have the cash for it but after seeing it, i probably couldnt have let it go either haha. I have everything for another snake except the snake. Problem is I still need to pay off Pat's cage next month as it ships end of next month and i also need to still call Bob at Pro Products and pay and have him ship a RHP to AP. Also need to get a hold of Dave at S3D for 4 sets of perch holders and an elevated water bowl holder. Plus my freakin drill died on me so i need to buy a new one of those....and yes...i still need a chest freezer hahaha.

Anyway, grats again man. Like i told you, that boa is awesome looking. I love how clean his sides are and how symmetrical and connected his saddles are as well as the clean side medallions. Good looking boy.

And you with a boa is like me with a GTP. Took me about 30 years to finally get one after seeing them in books as a 12 year old kid and saying "I want one of those!!".

Be prepared for a slowwwwww grower lol. Gina was about 2 feet when i got her. Now almost 1.5 years later and she is about 3 feet lol. Compared to Caesar who was about 2 feet when i got him and 2 years later, he is 8 feet haha. It's a completely different world with boas.

Do it right though and start him off on mice, none of this rat pinkies. All those pre weaned stuff is just a jellybean of milk and fat. I would guess he is already on small hopper mice.
