Oh jeez. About 3 hours after I got the new boa into her new digs (and still had all 10 fingers attached to my hands, and my hands still attached to my forearms and skin still intact on my forearms), she poo'd and pee'd. So, we needed to get her out of the cage to change the indented Kraft paper that I use for substrate. She was much calmer this time, did not hiss or try to eat me, but she was still freaked and I, probably more so. Got her into a pillowcase fairly easily and without much handling or stress. Cleaned the cage and also put up a climbing stick. Emptied her gently back into her cage. She slept on the stick all night long... She is a wild one...!
