x 2. And slower is better for boas! They will be healthier overall.


My 2 hypo Colombians are moderate growers right now, while my sunglow is very slow to put on weight. My Dumerils seems to be slower too. My 2 Argentines are faster - the male seems to be 2 inches longer every darn time I open the tub and the female is going to do the same even though she's not hit that growth spurt just yet (she's younger too so she just hasn't reached that point). Boas usually grow very slowly for the first year, then seem to hit a point where they spurt, then they'll slow down for a bit. It does just depend on the individual.
