    There is still kindness in this world!

    I have to share with you all my excitement.

    I found an ad in an online classifieds section for a 7' male boa, with a cage and accessories. I called him up, and he didn't want an adoption fee at all. I was like, "Okay, what's wrong with it?" I went to go find out...

    This boa was BEAUTIFUL. No wheezing, not agressive, in GORGEOUS shape, feeds on rats every two weeks.

    To top it off, he build this amazing plexiglass cage with a divider for water, which has a valve to empty it. He strapped it on top of my car and everything. He even gave me all the lights (including brand new, extra ones) timers, substrate, and extra glass tank to carry him home in and for extra rats, and a pump for a light mister he had set up for the tank.

    I guess he was moving to california and just couldn't take him. I am so pleased to see how well taken care of this snakes was- and even more pleased to see that some people don't want to sell their beloved pets (although i do understand the need), just give them to someone who they know will care and love them.


    So without further delay, here's tracy, the male boa












    Sorry to assualt you all with pics, I am just so damn siked. I have been itching for a boa, and this was just the perfect opportunity.

    Thanks for looking!

    Great find, congrats! I love that long stripe on his tail and he looks well taken care of. Couldn't ask for anything more.
