    I've wanted one for years way before I even got into reptiles 6-7 years ago but they just get so big maybe once I have a steady bp collection and rat colonies I'll be able to give one a wall tank enclosure and not have to worry about buying large rats every week or two lol

    Size does have me intimidated. But right now its about 18-20 inches. My smallest bp is around 15-17 inches. So alls good right now. Now just have to build a viv. Woo hoo

    Re: Rtb

    I don't know how long my 2 are but ones 108g and the other 186g the last time they pooped last week. I can't wait to get a rtb but I wanted a wood all around with bath tub material sealed and a glass dual swinging or sliding doors in my living room but I think it'd be hard to keep husbandry right unless I put like flexwatt all the way up the back or something for heat and I don't even know how I would keep humidity...

    I have an idea what I want. Got old bookshelf from my daughter that will be an awesome 20gal viv. From a post on here gave me an idea for heat tape/uth. Just need hinges and thick window/painters plastic to line inside of viv.

    Rtb

    Congrats on your nice looking Boa. I love all of that white in the tail, and the light areas in the saddles on the side.

    You won't be intimidated because you will grow with it in your handling experience.

    My first Boa, Butch stayed small at only 5.5 feet. I wanted more, so I got a larger adult next. Punch is 7 feet with double the girth. He is more fun to handle.

    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    Very beautiful snakes! I want one sooooooo bad but sadly don't have the space to accommodate one as it gets to full adult size.
