    My Christmas present!!

    here are some pic of what my girlfriend got me for Christmas:






    shes a hypo red tailed boa and weighs 112g and is about 24 inches long.

    the guy she got her from said that she was eating small mice, but shes about the same size as our ball python, and we're feeding him large mice at the moment, so would she be ok with large mice also?

    Beautiful salmon Bci!!!!
    As for feeding, I think I would be offering rat pups (or weanlings, depending on the size) every 7 days. Boas grow more slowly than balls and so upping their food size takes longer. I would also switch over to rats since you'll need to at one point anyway
    She is really a very nice looking boa
