    take a stick and tap his head. This will tell him no more food and go in and scoop him up.

    something about this boa just freaks me out... i grabbed him just fine and he didn't bite, he just puts his neck in that S a lot more then my other snakes do.... and usually when i pick him up he moves really fast like faster then i thought snakes could move lol

    Boas are garbage disposals and always want to eat. Be sure your feeding enough otherwise he will get in the S pose thinking more food is coming
