New Caulkers Cay Boa
I took delivery of my Caulkers Cay Boa today from Second City Constrictors (https://www.facebook.com/2ndcityconstrictors/) located in the Chicagoland area. TJ was awesome to work with; great communication, easy to talk to, sent pics, video....thank you for making my first online purchase easy.
The dame is a 2006 Vin Russo and sire a 2011 Ben Siegel, and was born 07-13-2016, currently weighs 74g.
I look forward to many years with her as I wanted a true locality snake and one you don't see all the time in collections.
A pic from the breeder and just a couple from this morning as I didn't want to stress her any further from shipping. For reference, the PVC is 3/4" tubing, she's such a little noodle LOL

In her quarantine enclosure just chillin on the PVC jungle gym. (thanks Sauzo for the idea)

I got mine from TJ Blevins, his business is Second City Constrictors. He has true locality Caulkers Cay that are Russo/Seigel blood lines, no outsiders LOL I just talked with him today and he still has a few left.

Caught her chillin' after a fresh shed yesterday and thought I'd share.

On the extra jungle gym showing off her new skin - the picture doesn't do her any justice - the peach coloring on her sides and tail are awesome.

Great little pick up there, I love it when they are being inquisitive

Re: New Caulkers Cay Boa
Thank you - I enjoy giving them "play time" as to exercise and get some enrichment. The jungle gym I built has come in very handy for that (I'll post a picture of that tomorrow).

Re: New Caulkers Cay Boa
I used to have a little tree when mine was small had to upgrade since they chunked out a bit https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...19a763c523.jpg

Thanks - I smiled a bit when I walked in and saw her resting like that and had to get a picture.
She's growing nicely, not too fast and is very easy to handle.
Richard - I made a 6' PVC jungle gym for all of them to hang out on. They all seem to use it without getting stressed.

Re: New Caulkers Cay Boa
I just LOVE those dwarfs.... I own a Hogg Island Boa and a Sonoran het Leopard Boa, both females and sweet as pie.
Was on the hunt for a CC Boa, but hard to find up north. Congrats on your purchase, very nice!!

I was thinking about the Hogg or a Tarahumara but went with the CC because of that wicked head pattern - I bet the breeder I got mine from still has available...TJ Blevins, you can find him on FB. Good luck!!!
