Gina the Rio Bravo Pokigron Suriname progression thread

[Sauzo]

IMO one of the nicest looking snakes on the forum.
The shape of a Healthy Suri boa is a thing of beauty.

Boa constrictors in general are great, loaf shapes.

Gina just kicks it up a notch.

Thanks man. I really am pretty proud of acquiring Gina. I wanted a BCC for a while but never really saw one i wanted that was for sale lol. Udo Wagner has a few that i would trade a kid for but they arent for sale. He has some smokin Peruvians which I'd love to get my grabby little hands on but again, not for sale lol. I got one lone empty T8 left and I'm trying to decide on either a Peruvian, a moonglow BCI or selling it and putting the cash towards a red neonate biak cross GTP. Pat is just a blast at night. Little booger will perch at the front of the cage and if i wiggle the tip of a white paper towel towards him, he will assume the 'dinner time' position and look at it haha. This is through the glass so he cant actually get it and only for a few secs as i dont want him to strike the glass.

Sneak peek of Gina, using a big piece of cypress as a pillow lol. She's in her dark phase after eating her weaned rat.

What kind/brand of cypress did you order? Gina’s looking good!

Thanks. This is the Zoo Med forest floor stuff. I just order it from Chewy.com. Can't beat the fairly cheap price and even better, free 2 day shipping.

This is the first time i've used cypress and i have to say, i am pretty pleased. The lays flat which is what i have been looking for.

Caught Gina up top today. I think she gives a tails up to the silk plant on the shelf idea lol. Either that or she is hungry again.....which i wouldnt find surprising. Everyone is just a bottomless pit.

That is one damn nice looking boa constrictor!

Thanks man. And what makes it even better is she is just a sweetie. She has hissed at me once when i first got her and she was in shed. Since then, she is just so laid back.

Well, i think Gina has found a new spot to hang out. She was up on her shelf under her plants most of the day yesterday. Then last night she came down, went inside her warm hide for about an hour and then was out exploring around. Now today i caught her back up above the warm hide in the shelf under her plants. I'm guessing this is a definite thumbs up to the plants hanging over the shelf idea. No one else seem to care too much about though lol.


She's so innocent looking but the minute you show her a weaned rat, she turns into danger noodle and you better watch the fingers lol.

And one more of Jungle Gina.
