Tequila Out for Exercise (Very Pic Heavy)

[frankykeno]

Jo, Thats awesome, your passion for your snakes is very apparent... Tequila is turely a awesome looking boa

Thanks Joe.

Hey hon you did get some amazning pics of tequila. It's fun to watch her explore the house,it was like wow stairs are these like my tree they go up cool. I find interacting with her and our other boas to be intresting as them seem to like and enjoy such interaction more so then our bp's.

Okay dear but now I get to tell them about that one "interaction" LMAO!

Mike was lifting Tequila off our bed in preparation for hauling her big butt back downstairs when she did a very typical boa move - the big head swing. Well Mike was wearing a pair of those loose legged board shorts and geeze guess where Tequila swung that big head of hers!

Yep, right up the leg of Mike's shorts!!!

Okay I know I should have been the responsible snake handler and immediately helped remove her but heck...I burst out laughing at the look on his face! It was all I could do to NOT take a quick snapshot of that! LMAO Apparently men don't see this situation as quite the hilarious moment as women do. HAHAHAHAHA

All the credit to Mike though, he handled it perfectly. Didn't get freaked out, just stood still and removed Tequila. I don't know if I would have been that calm had she done that with me. LOL

Mike and Jo~ Thanks for all of those great pictures!! Tequila is simply awesome and what a thrill to see her 'on the go'! Wow~ I just don't think that I have the words to describe my feelings when I look at that big and beautiful snake It's just really something very special.

Thanks McKinsey, we think she's very special too.

She's lovely Jo,

Looks like Missy has really made her mark with the new family.

Congrats with her (you are really making us want one!).

Bruce, properly handled and cared for these are very incredible snakes. That they can be out and about for more extended time periods and handled without creating as much stress for them is really fun. Since most of these type of boas seem to have a pretty laid back approach to life makes them a real joy to have around. Feeding day is a different ball of wax though. Big strike range, heavy hitters that don't play around when hunting, but other than that I've yet to see any real temperment issues with the boas we've had in the house.
