Approved - And a Handling Question

[blushingball419]

I didn't know they grow faster than bps! My bps are growing like weeds lol. I did make sure I got a male boa because I don't think I could personally handle a 10+ foot female on my own. Good to know though! And I only take my bps out with me like that if it's 75+ degrees outside, I'd never do that in the winter lol.

Well, they both grow pretty fast, but yeah, from my experience with my ex's little female RTB, she was only a few months old when we bought her and she seemed to almost double her size in just around 6 months. Now I could be remembering wrong since it was several years ago now, and I'm sure because females are larger they grow faster, but they definitely do grow fast!

Haha yup, that's exactly why I got a male boa too!! Even though rainbows are already smaller than RTBs, I really didn't want a 7 foot long snake... anything more than that I wouldn't feel comfortable handling on my own. And same here, I was even afraid to take out my snakes the other day when the wind was a little chilly haha
