    No! Boas can have a bit of loose skin - that's normal for them especially when they are nearing their shed cycle. Please just keep your baby on a 7 day feeding schedule even now. You do NOT want to over feed a boa and 5 days is too often for them. One appropriately sized prey item every 7 days will do wonders for him.

    He's a nice looking baby! Congrats on the pickup - you'll love having him!
