    My boa's perfect shed

    No good pics of the little guy yet, still waiting to handle him in a day or two, but I took his shed skin and tacked it to the fence outside for a photo I've been wanting to make.

    Re: My boa's perfect shed

    Nice pic. I love B&W. Someone on here suggested it as a theme for one of the monthly photo contests. I think it's a good idea.

    Great shed too, btw. Has he fed for you yet?

    Sorry to hijack the thread, but that is a good idea. Black and white is all I shoot

    B&W photos just have such a different feel (don't know a better way to describe it). I'm definitely a fan.

    Re: My boa's perfect shed

    Did someone say photo contest?

    I think I saw something about that on the home page, I guess I should look into it some more.

    Re: My boa's perfect shed

    Nice looking shed. With our first boa We got a perfect shed when he was about 7.5 feet. A friend is a teacher at a local middle school. He took it in to show his kids. The science teacher took it home shlacked it and mounted it to a 10ft length of wood and has it now over his black board. I am supposed to do a snake show in that class room this spring when the weather breaks this year.
