Sniper 2017.

[Gio]

I scored this beautiful locality, Barranquilla, Colombian BCI from Legacy Reptiles April 23rd of 2013. He turns 5 years old on June 28th. He is a Rio Bravo Reptiles/Gus Rentfro creation and I still marvel at how special this "common boa" is.

This is Sniper. I'm not at all happy with these photos, but they'll have to do for now.



He's fully mature and becoming a big boy. He is not fed during the winter months, yet he's growing still.




The shade had better coloring, but I usually like sunlight.


The body.


Another head picture and you can see he still has his pinks and different colors.


I owed the board some boa pictures. Sniper was very active and these pictures were difficult to take. Over all I hate the lighting.

Even still I hope you enjoyed them a bit.

That's one good looking snake!

That is a serious snake, Gio. I love everything about it!

What is his approximate length and weight now?

I'm not sure on the weight, possibly 15 pounds, I'll weigh him and measure him on his birthday in 8 days. I usually write that in his feeding book each year.

He's pushing 7 feet so I'd guess he's anywhere from 6' 5" to 6' 8".

I'm feeding him a bit heavier this summer because he's had a winter off and he seems a bit hungry with these warm temps.

Unfortunately the lighting in those photos is terrible, and he was extremely active so I had a difficult time getting any quality pictures.

I'll reshoot him later this summer.

Sniper looks fantastic Gio!

Those photos look good to me. No apologies necessary.

Wow, he's solid. Looks very strong.

It's been noted many times but of all my snakes Burms / Retic/ Corns / Kings / Rat snakes etc etc None come close to the strength of my Boas ...

I agree, pound for pound they are very dense and strong.

Nothing like a lean, muscular and healthy BC.
