Hope it perks him up and helps him fill his baggy skin out a lil bit. I wish I would have got the chance to weigh him before he ate. But he has been in isolation since we got him.

I am so proud that I got this boa to remember he is a predator. I feel like I have really accomplished something.

Going to give him a couple days alone some more to get it all nice and digested and give him a nice soak to get his previous stuck shed off him.
Congrats!! I'm so glad to hear it has taken in a meal. Hopefully after a few feedings the snake will start to get larger in bulk and fill out that baggy skin. I would love to see pictures once that snake has gotten the shed off and once the snake becomes fat & healthy :]
