Re: Updated Photos - Adult Dumeril's
Thanks for sharing your pictures. It looks like you've done a great job raising her.
Re: Updated Photos - Adult Dumeril's
Thank you guys :).
Little update on her. She is actually pushing 40lbs :O!
Re: Updated Photos - Adult Dumeril's
so cool! mine is about a foot and a half, and the boy is only like 15 inches. i can't waaaaait unil they're that big!
Re: Updated Photos - Adult Dumeril's
She's incredible! I just got a four month old baby girl myself a couple days ago. I took her out of her tank for the first time since she arrived this evening just to check on how her shed is progressing and to make sure she was okay. :P She hasn't come out from under the hide (that I've been awake for) since she arrived. I couldn't resist taking her out to check on her for just a quick minute. So rewarding. Dumeril's are absolutely beautiful snakes. And yours is GORGEOUS! I hope my little girl grows up to be like your giant "cuddle" monster there.
Great work with her! :gj:

I am not sure of her age as the people I got her from didn't know, but she was 14 lbs and ~6 1/2 ft when I got her.

Great work with her! :gj:
Thank you very much :D! I totally understand that, especially with any new snake. They definitely take time to grow but it is so worth it. Good luck with your girl :gj:!

Cool boa! I had a dum he was very timid.
Same here!! That's exactly why I chose that avatar :). And that's hilarious :8::8:!!
Thank you! I hear they can sometimes be nervous. Haven't experienced this myself yet though.

As well as a tegu, since Sk's avatar reminded me of it.
Anywho, cool pictures! There aren't enough pictures of dumeril's on here.
They are amazing boas to have. Thank you! I agree!

Re: Updated Photos - Adult Dumeril's
Beautiful dumeril girl....
Re: Updated Photos - Adult Dumeril's
She is gorgeous. Is a dumeril a boa that one handler can safely manage for it's life time??
I would like to get one but am alone with providing their care.

I believe their docile nature makes them fairly simple to handle. It's an awesome way to get used to handling larger snakes as well. Even though she is quite heavy and a bit much for my size, I find her as easy to handle just as my other snakes are.
I haven't heard of a Dumeril's being a two-person handling job, but I would definitely see that would be the case if the specimen was growing to be 8 ft+. Fortunately, males do not reach the lengths that females do, so one person could feel comfortable handling an adult male without any assistance.
If you are interested, a male would be the way to go if you are worried about size. Dumeril's are slow growers, so it does take time for them (3+ years) to reach their adult lengths.
Re: Updated Photos - Adult Dumeril's
So you would suggest getting a baby and raising it up rather than buying an adult - just wondering
Thanks

I wouldn't see why not, I purchased my first Dumeril's as a baby. But I definitely do not regret purchasing my big girl as an adult.
