Dealing with a biter

[frankykeno]

Exactly! Remember that rule with any big boas you might have lying around!

LOL she's a big ole puppy dog snake!

Seriously though, we never forget just how big and powerful Mz. Tequila the boa is and the potential she's got in her for some real damage if she ever chose to bother herself with it. We love having her but part of that responsibility of housing a snake like her is being smart about how you approach her and allowing her the time to recognize you are friend not foe (or dinner).

I cannot imagine how it is to handle a true giant. Tequila's more than enough snake for me.

I'm glad she is doing so great!! Can't wait to see more pics...

Thanks everyone for your advice. I found poop this morning when I was leaving for work. She really laid down some logs! I took the poop out but will change the substrate tonight. I will try the "stop hand" technique with a gloved hand tonight.
