    Re: Leonard, 1 year(ish) :)

    Not sure what his length is but my Colombian male is 5 foot something at 2 years old. I think your's looks just fine.

    The oldest boas are the largest boas! Feed appropriately, but don't over feed. He will get to the size he's supposed to be in due time.

    A lot of these "schedule fed" boas die early. Many people don't take into consideration that captive bred rodents contain much more fat than wild rodents.

    There are several good feeders here with good advice. As has been said; "It's almost impossible to under feed a boa."

    That snake looks great!
