    Size of Adult Boa

    Those of you that have adult Columbian Red Tail Boas, please post their adult weights and lengths. I'm just curious. My little girl is growing so fast now. If you want, post up a picture or two. And what does BCC and BCI stand for and which snakes are which? Haha. I guess I'm just getting all sorts of excited because I hope to get a male next season and if my female's growth wasn't stunted, then I plan on breeding her once she is big enough.

    Re: Size of Adult Boa

    BCI = Boa Constrictor Imperator

    BCC = Boa Constrictor Constrictor

    The vast majority of the boas on the market are BCI. From my understanding BCC tend to get a little bit larger on average and are less forgiving of husbandry errors. Once you look at a bunch of pictures of boas you will be able to notice the difference pretty easily.

    I have a female BCI that is just over 3 years old and is in the 6 to 7 foot range. I'll get some pictures up later because I just fed her today. She still has a little bit of growing to do because I tend to stick to a conservative feeding schedule for my boas.
