    Barranquilla, Colombian Boa 11 Years.

    I'm still waiting on warmer weather so I can get the snakes outdoors.

    For now, the indoor photos will have to suffice.

    Sniper is pushing 11 years old. He's a 2012 male, bred by Gus Rentfro that I received in April of 2013. He'll be 11 years old June 27th. I've kept this guy very lean. He's very active this time of year.

    I'm not happy with the lighting in these pictures. It seems to favor the carpets, but the boa looks a bit darker than he is.










    That's a wrap, thanks for looking.

    Seems his favorite exercise is "the squeeze".

    It must be nice to be born of pure muscle and have the genetic gifts to be able to sit in one place and never get out of shape.

    Even if the lighting isn't quite capturing his true colors, Sniper is looking fantastic. Great body condition, too.

    Your comment about being able to sit in one place and never get out of shape made me chuckle. I also envy our snakes for that!

    Glad you are back posting boa constrictor pictures.

    Been a while and it is a breath of fresh air.

    No offense to the Royal crowd.

    It's great to be back! I've certainly missed being able to see periodic updates on everyone's snakes, in both the BP and boa sections of the forum.
