When things are good!

[Gio]

Well,

I guess I figured out why having more than 1, 2 or even 3 snakes is a good thing LOL!

When all cylinders are firing it can be pretty fun and entertaining.

The new retic is great but my other snakes have stepped up the game. My first love, and he always will be, is my boa constrictor. The locality Barranquilla, Colombian bred by Gus Rentfro and sold to me by Legacy Reptiles never ever disappoints me. In fact he has exceeded all expectations. The number one snake in my collection for so many reasons.

Post shed and active! NO,,,, boa constrictors are not boring if you feed them properly!

Arboreal, active and beautiful! Closing in on 7 feet long at 4+ years old.
Sniper!


IMO boas are as versatile and interesting as any snake out there. They move in such a controlled manner, and will utilize both perches and cover to their advantage. This boy has a body like a ribbon. He's flat on the sides, tall, yet he's thick and as hard as steel.

OVER ALL, the perfect balance of length, weight and coloration. Boas are well liked because they pack everything into the perfect package. Docile, a joy to handle and IMO excellent eaters. Boas are pretty much perfect.




If you have never experienced a carpet python yet, and enjoy boas, you are in for a treat if you decide to snatch one of these up.


I'd say more active in general than boas, but very similar. Long, impressive, but not quite the jaw dropping shape and thickness of a well maintained BC. This girl is pushing 7 feet long, is a terrible eater however she is the sweetest snake we have here up to this point.

The coastal carpet mix is very entertaining and a real joy to own.

The beautiful, natural pattern of a mutt.


The snake that started all. My son's royal python "Hunter". She is another predictable handling snake. She drives me nuts when it come to feeding but when she is dialed in,,,,, she is all business!
5 years old and a bit over 4 feet long. This snake will live for ever because she regulates her own feeding schedule. There is a reason royals hold the record for longest living snake species.


I'm never stressed when everybody is eating well. I wish this girl would take F/T rats but I'm OK as long as she eats.


And what can I stay about this guy??


The great unknown. How big will he get? Will he climb and entertain me like the BC and carpet?

So far it looks good.


Everybody says one is never enough. I agree LOL!

I feel I have a very nice, diverse collection here. I'm not interested in breeding snakes so this seems to be the perfect group of four.

Although I do feel bad that pythons outnumber boas here 3 to 1 LOL!

I'll post again in 3 years when I get my Suri LOL!
