Lucky catch, first boa!
I got extremelly lucky today and was able to get a hog island boa. She is 2 years old and so sweet! I was the temporary keeper of a bci (no idea which kind) for a few weeks a few years ago and its so weird to have my own now! Especially has I have just begun getting snakes. I do not have any pictures yet (that dont have my face in it ), but she looks at lot like what she is supposed to look like xD
She was kept in a big tub in a converted shelve unit to rack. It seems to be enough from what I read and for now I cannot get anything bigger for her but I do hope to instal branches or something she can climb? I'm lost to what she needs except the basic stuff and what the ex-owner said.
The person that sold ger to me was quitting the herps and also had a bci sonoran but I was already at my top spending wise.... Still wish I got it too...
Fall 2015 :
"I'll only get one" I said, cuddling a bp hatchling "See how it goes"
Two months later :
2 adults, 2 juveniles and 1 bci.
"Oops"
Next month :
Conquering the world

Congrats. Also, Yoda is disappointed with you:
Mountain bikes are for slow people, and reptiles are far better pets than cats & dogs!

Tomorrow I will have all the photos! Or at least try, she's a facehugger, as long as she does not start laying anything anywhere...

Thats what the owner said! Google seems to think it is somewhat the same, but I find boas hard to identify xP
The lights make her more orange then she really is.
