lol i own 30+ snakes in my home and own my own shop. i am just new to ball pythons. eclark, thanks for the heads up on how much norm females can be i wasnt really aware. chances are sadly the boa will not make it as he has ibd and a broken spine(long story dont ask) ill just raise up my female and will be browsing around for some adults. thanks
