HI,
I have to share this with someone my 2nd hog island is coming on monday Via air shipment. He will be my second High orange Sear's Hog Island Boa. He is a real looker the breeder was holding him back and I finally convinced him to let me Buy it.

I plan to name him Danior ( means born with teeth) , I think the name is appropiate...
Jezze I hates waiting.........:grab:

I will breed him to this hog island in a couple years.

HI,
I always feed fresh thawed , never feed live never will.
if they don't eat fresh thawed they are gonna get hungry.
Most snakes can be easily converted, I only buy from breeders who believe in this concepts so I haven't hit the wall yet.

Most live or fresh killed rodents can an may have parasites they will be transfered to the boa, and can actually thrive in the snake, after about 18 months the snake may stop feeding due to parasite load.. this happens alot. so if I rescue a snake I take it to the vets get it wormed convert to thawed and never have a problem with worms. mites and or rat fleas..
Danior is checking out his cage, he's been in the water dish for a swim climbed over the log hide , checked out the che's covers and found time to shed, and pass urates... jeeze he's active..
