    2019 First Pictures.

    Not my best photo work, however they were taken on the I-Phone Xs which is a semi decent camera.

    This is Sniper who is approaching the 7 year mark in June.

    After some of the chatter about boa constrictors, I felt somewhat compelled to post a few photos.

    This is a Rio Bravo (Gus Rentfro) creation, a Barranquilla, Colombian boa constrictor. A pure locality that is said to posses the traits of both BC (BCC) and BI (BCI).

    I'm obviously biased because he's mine but I can't help but thinking he's beautiful even in his older, semi faded age.



    It may actually snow here tomorrow so I took the opportunity to make today count.


    I promise to get some quality pictures of this guy.


    I actually had Wallace, the SD X Dwarf retic out before this and he was so annoying I had to put him back. My wife actually suggested "any one of them but that one" should come out.

    I find it refreshing that folks here are starting to ask specific questions regarding BC care. I really feel BC's are about as perfect as a semi large to large snake as can be.


    Thanks for looking, and thanks for posting your own BC photos. Boas are fantastic snakes.

    Tell the truth now...have you been waxing Sniper's tail? Nice iridescence & an overall very beautiful guard-rail.

    Whatchu mean, "snow"! Y'all just KEEP that stuff...

    Dude, he is smokin!! All your critters are though.
    Your boy Wallace reminds me of my scrub. Nice to look at, and you love em, but they can be a real pain sometimes. I'm glad I ended up with two boas instead of two scrubs, which almost happened.
