Again, beautiful animal and very glad the personality matches that!
Keep the pictures coming, drool.
Katie (my fiancé) was the same way, but she's coming around. Was not super happy about me moving in with a bunch of reptiles and the two dogs. Now 5 dogs between us and 8 reptiles split among 7 tanks! Luckily the 6X2' X 5 levels high has saved a ton of space and maintains temps and humidity better than anything else I have ever had! So, having 3 6X2' tanks and 4 3X2' tanks works great and all in one spot.
She started coming around with Frank, the BTS. Then she really started liking Behira's (BCI) personality. Now, she adores our new baby, Solana (Scaleless Sunglow Motley Corn), who's all of 9G and stunningly beautiful. Solana is the one who is going to get her really like and appreciate snakes, I can tell.
However, also very appreciative that she a) let me move in to her house, b) accepted my proposal, and c) allows the reptiles.
I find my boa fairly active, and my carpet as well. Probably more so but it all depends on the day and who's eaten and who hasn't.
Jewel is super mellow. I shouldn't really use the word social to describe her but I'm going to do so. Early on she was a firecracker and bit me 3-4 times. After about a week she settled way down.
Once settle she actually was hand fed. She wouldn't strike in her cage, but when I held her in one hand and put the fuzzy in front of her with the other hand she's gently open her mouth and eat.
NOT at all typical, but its led to her being the most trustworthy snake here.
The boa is very chill, but he bit me last fall, my fault, he went behind my back and I reached around, grabbing his head by mistake and I got a little nip.
Jewel is easy to read, and seems to enjoy coming out.
She's a pain to feed and I often resort to live, which I don't like but there's only so much time in the day and only so many prey items I can tolerate wasting.
If my son didn't have his royal, and I didn't go nuts for SD retics, I'd have 2 carpets and 2 boas here.
They are tops on my list for overall enjoyment.
I like how Reinz and Ziggy have locality animals, and there is another few here that have Brisbane Coastals. Those are my favorites followed by Bredli.
Locality boas and carpets are my top picks.
