Dwarf Mexican Boas

[AaronP]

Howdy! Today I'll be showing you Carlos & Maria, they are 2.5 Years old and are First Gen CBB siblings. Their parents were WCLTC and were 10 years old before they bred. The siblings were raised by separate people and I recently acquired them from the original owners. I think Mexican boas are not only beautiful but an ideal snake for many beginners and any boaphile out there because as CBB's they are as tame as any other boa but they don't get bigger than 5'! Which makes them exceptionally easy to house and feed.

1st Maria - She's a very shy girl and originally they had problems getting her to eat but eventually she pulled through and eats small rats every 7 days.





2nd Carlos - He's an exact opposite of his sister, with different color variations and a very spunky attitude. He is a very curious snake and loves to explore, where Maria would rather be cozy.




And now pictures of the pair together.



I am very proud to be one of the few people who has a breedable pair of these awesome Boas and I will be attempting to breed them this season.

Mexican dwarf locality boas are definately highly underrated.

Even though they reach a very reasonable size, they have had a bad rep with regards to temperment. I have found that given some time and with persistent handling, they become wonderful captives.

The CB ones are extremely docile and the ones I have are the children of a WC pair that was fairly docile, but they were also in captivity for 10 years before they were bred.
