    40 pound red tailed boa experience
    Today i went to my local pet store where my friend was working. My friend who was working there told me to walk his way and there was a really big duffle bag. He told me to lift it up. So i did, and it was pretty heavy so i guessed it to be a retic or a burm, I was wrong when he opened the bag there was a HUGE Red tailed boa girl. tHe thickest part of her body was at LEAST 7 inches. We got her out trying to measure her but wrestling this girl was a challenge, but we did have a lot of fun. I will try and get a photo next time if i can (::cool:

    Now this is a beast of a boa. He told me she actually has a hormone issue so she will never actually stop growing.

    Not to steal the OP's thread, but since everyone wants pics, here's one of me with an 8 foot RTB that I'm sure was at least 40 lbs if not more. This was at the science center I interned at a couple summers ago. Sorry to everyone who's seen the pic before when I posted it :P

    The craziest thing is that this was a male RTB!! This was the only way I could comfortably "hold" him, and I had to have someone else help me lift him up there... definitely a big boy.
