    Ok so I had a lot going on tonight so here is a teaser to hold you guys over until I can get some proper pictures:

    Here is the male, roughly 4.5-5'

    I haven't measured but the female has to be around 10' and at least 30lbs if not more and she's fully blue right now so I didn't wanna make her mad lol, male already bit me so I'm gonna let then relax... No clue really their weight and length but I will weigh them tomorrow at least.

    With that said, the boy is pretty feisty but even blue the girl seems puppy dog tame believe it or not.

    Bite was nothing. So lighting fast and over before it started lol. He lost 2 teeth in my hand but he was fine as well.

    Taken after all the blood was cleaned up:

    Man that sucks! I love all snakes but the big ones intrigue me the most! It's like a respect thing, puts you in your place haha. I'd be a lazy handler if I had corns or kings or other small snakes, there's just no fear there for me.

    But again I'm not afraid handling big ones, I'm just excited to handle them lol

    I actually did take my female out today and snapped two pics of her. Mind you she is very blue so her colors aren't amazing in the pic but you get the idea:

    Yellows are SO MUCH faster than boas! It's ridiculous!

    I got some up for you lol.

    Btw we didn't get a tape on her but judging by the size and distance between objects in that room we estimate her to be almost 11ft long, and I did happen to get her on the scale and she is a few grams away from 28lbs

    Ya she's def my biggest girl! My next biggest is still 8.25' long but 10lbs lighter. And this girl is only about 5 years old supposedly, and is expected to breed this season. They are a proven pair so I'm pretty excited for that.
