Boas should be slow-grown and they have slower metabolisms than ball pythons. They are also very aggressive and opportunistic feeders and will eat themselves to death if you let them.


im gonna add more photos in "my photos" right now for you to check out. & she's not thick at all. I take her out and feed her once every week and she's still hungry a little while after eating so I have to let her calm down for like 20 mins before putting her back in her enclosure. Possible you have dwarfs?! Because I thought in their first year they can double in length.
