    Brazilian Rainbow Boa
    Well, i know i said I couldnt have any more snakes for a while... and i was getting rid of 3 of my female balls... so on so forth...

    this gorgeous girl was my uncle kents (in cali) and he didnt have time for her any more, my mom told me on the way to their house that i couldnt have it lol, cause he had mentioned prolly needing to find her a new home soon...

    well my mom totally caved... and she wanted her... and asked me if i wanted her, and i was like err duh. and i was still confused...

    shes about 13 years old, and 6.5 foot long.

    so monday morning we shipped her to my house and then left for the airport for me to go home =D
    she got here yesterday...

    and then yesterday,
    my brother wanted to know if she had come in, and he wanted to see her...
    so i took off her hide, and went to pick her up, she hissed, i blew her off, and picked her up... she did what she had done time and time again, and wrapped around my wrist... and then tensed up...

    i was like oh CRAP
    and then it happend... (left fore arm.)

    I'll never understand people that give up snakes because they "don't have time for them anymore". It's food and water once or twice a week. Not like they have to go for walkies...


    Good-looking boa though. I've never seen a full-grown BRB. More pics are required... :P

    never been bitten by a ball lol.
    honestly tho, i think ball pythons, well... most pythons for that matter, would hurt worse cause they seem to have more muscle behind the bite... jaw wise... idk, thats just what i have figured with looking at the boa compared with my pythons...

    lol

    i dont know im i think its cool when i get bit by snakes because you really dont feel it to much unless they latch pn i think that would hurt really bad whenever ive been bitten it was just a tag

    Re: Brazilian Rainbow Boa

    Re: Brazilian Rainbow Boa
    LOL, all snakes have the ability to do that! Are they known for that kind of temperment?
