Smile Two New Boas

Went to the petstore yesterday to get mice, went to look at the snakes and the "red-tailed" boas were half off. My birthday was Monday (we were planning for a snake) so we decided to see about handling them and see how they were. So now I have two new snakes and as soon as I can find Iris Holiday tubs I'll get two, and maybe for Christmas I'll have my dad build them wooden display tanks.

So, I know the brown one is obviously not a red-tailed boa, lol. I think the second ones a nice looking BCI, and I don't care either way, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten them, but I wanted your guys' input so I was just wondering if you guys would care to agree or disagree. Thanks for looking

Best pic I could get of this one, he/she's a little nippy


And the other one, before I put them away.

You can see a food bump in this pic, they were feeding multiple hoppers and fuzzies but I will try to be switching rats ASAP.

Re: My Birthday Present

The little brown boa went into shed about a week ago, eyes have cleared up so hopefully I'll have some more pics in a few days for you guys. This one did manage to tag me and give me my first bite about a week or so ago too, lol. Here's a couple pics I could get without him trying to rip my hands off, he doesn't care for the camera


His tail has lots of orange, cameras don't really capture it though, sadly.

Re: My Birthday Present

Thanks! After he sheds he's gonna get a nice belly full of food, hoping he'll take a rat for me I don't know if it's actually a he, the tail is just much longer and thinner, so I just call it a he.
