    Finally! New pictures of Carmen the BCC!
    Since I didn't get around to feeding the snakelettes yesterday and I happened to remember I needed to get new pictures, here ya go!

    Carmen on a hibiscus (don't ask how long it took to extract her from said hibiscus):

    A few in the sun:

    Such a pretty face!

    And just for size comparison; this is the same snake who 15 months weighed 120g. She now weighs nearly 5lbs! (Excuse my Sunday hair =P)

    What a big beautiful girl Cassandra... I think the last pics I saw of her, she was all tangled up in your fingers :) My Lord, she sure is growing fast.


    Thanks, as always, for the pics!

    Thanks guys! She's not fat either...just growing like a weed, even for a BCC...well, a fast weed over 15 months, hehe...

    And still, to show that every boa is different, LOVES her hides. Next problem will finding a larger set when she reeeeally can't stuff herself into her current ones, hehe!

    She doesn't look fat at all... just fit and tone and every inch the predator. With a sweet face :)


    I need to get a BCC in the collection somewhere.

    Cereal boxes make good hides for big boas if you want something cheap and disposable... Or kitty litter boxes are great, too.

    She'd rip apart a cardboard box before you could blink...that and she has a bad habit of peeing in her hide...mmmm, marinating. :rolleyes:

    I need something heavy she can really flex against that's hopefully washable...

    I know I've heard of people that use litter boxes... I think April uses plastic litter boxes for her big boas. I've never used them myself, so not really sure how you'd put the hole in them... could you use a soldering iron and just circle it to expand the hole?

    Definitely something to think about...but you know me, I do wish I could find something that has a natural look to it. If I can't find anything natural looking, I will give the kitty litter box thing a try.

    She still squeezes in her current hides okay, but I know she won't in a month or three...sometimes, I think she gives up and just leaves her tail hanging out, the lazy bum. :D

    LOL... aw! Kinky's new nickname is big butt... I just love that big, round red tail. Everytime she tries to hide under the couch it always gets stuck hanging out :)
