Yes I hadn`t considered just how old this snake could be since the original owner is a rather young girl, moved away for school for the first time.
And, yes Coastals, and Jungles and, Jags are all far more popular in this area. I noticed he is a tad dull so might be close to the next shed, even dull he has a wonderful iridescence that I can't wait to capture in pics. Almost reminiscent of Amythestine's. Honestly, I don't care if this one ever enters my breeding plans nut, he is super cool and already very alert and checking me out every time I am in his room.
Hopefully since he has had bare minimal handling in the last year he warms up quickly and doesn't mind going on a diet. That head is rather intimidating when combined with a 5+ foot body bigger around than my forearm.
I am liking Carpets and Boa's more and more every day.
