PICS of the BCI :)

Ok, here are the pics of the new guy. The previous owner told me he is in shed, and low and behold, I put him in his new home and he sheds! So these pics are with him in his brand new skin. Enjoy :)

What a great lookin boa!!!
Congrats again

Beautiful! My husband id jealous! so am I...............

jealous isn't even the word for it... lovely snake jenn.

LOL, thanks guys :)

Really a GREAT looking snake. You should name him "Charlie" after Charlie Chaplin since he's got a comical moustache.

I was hoping someone else would notice the "moustache" lol.. Thanks :D

VERY nice lookin guy!
Welcome to the club!

MAN, I'm DYING!! I hate getting a new addition and NOT being able to HOLD IT!! :( LOL

Ahh well, better for everyone in the long run, eh? Thanks Randy, I'm glad to have joined :)

How long before you can hold it?

I always tell myself to wait 7 days before holding a new addition..But it never ends up that long! LOL.. I'll prolly wait 3-5 days, since he didn't get shipped here, he only went on a 10 minute car drive, and now he is being quarentined. Plus, he doesn't seemed stressed, but you never know; they can't talk to me, lol. The only thing I'm worried about with introducing a boa into my python "collection" is the extra risk of IBD. Man that stuff sucks.

I'll probably try feeding him next Wednesday, (since the previos owner said he hasn't eaten in a month due to being down for the winter), and then 3 or 4 days after that I'll get him out and hold him. Man, that sounds like so far away, LOL....

Jennifer

it's gotta be nice just to watch him. what sort of enclosure is he in?


... that thing has one MASSIVE head.

You keep refering to the boa as a he, so I'm thinking that it's a male right? How old is it? How long is it? Do you know how much it weighs? Do you have any plans for it as far as breeding goes?

whoa whoa whoa whoa... haha. she's had him only hours. ;)


hehe... good questions though :).

Those are questions that the previous owner should've given her except for the last one but ok.

BEAUTIFUL! I love the little red marks under his eyes :)

You're lucky I'm not out in mesa anymore or i might break into your house and play with your snakes :) lol

Danny, questions are okay. :) He is a male (as sold to be by the previous owner, I will probe him myself at a later time when he his settled in); he is 4 years old; I don;t know the weight, I was going to weigh him, but it didn't feel necissary. All I know is he is a big guy, lol. He just over 6' long, and unless I get a female (which, probably not) then no I don't have any plans for breeding him. :)

Man, I felt like I'm selling him, those are all questions you answer when you're selling an animal, lol. It's all good, though. Like I said, questions are good. :) Any others? LOL..

Oh, and that is a MASSIVE head, like you said, will. I can't get over it, lol. And you can just pet his face and he won't even jilt his head back a little bit; it's really cool.

Jennifer

LOL Andariel!!

thought you hadn't handled him yet ;).

How else would I have taken the pics? :lol::lol:

:) just be glad i'm 3,000 miles away... I wouldn't steal anything (well.. maybe a snake or two... but who wouldn't?) :)

-Chris

i can pet my ball pythons head :) just as long as i dont mind a few punture wounds....jk, it doesnt bite.
so how big do you think that boas teeth are?

I already opened his mouth and saw them (when I was checking for RI symptoms) and they look like bp teeth. ;)

they're small
pointed inward almost exactly like a bp maybe a bit bigger
