Just got a pair of Hog Island boas that are almost 2 years old, both weighing around 650 grams.

Could you guys help take a look and let me know how their body condition looks? Do they look healthy, or are they on the heavier side?

Any advice or feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

While at my local reptile shop the employee showed me one of their new baby boa, and I immediately feel in love with him. But I’m not sure if in 5 years from now I’m going to want a 6 foot 10 lbs snake. I’ve been looking for snakes for a bit and I really like boas, I’m just not sure.

Was anyone in the same spot I am or have any suggestions?

PS: This won’t be my first reptile but it will be my first snake

He's 6 years old and at 5.2kg. I feed him 1 large rat every month, if he allows me. He is fussy sometimes and refuses to eat...but he did eat last week. Should I feed him more constant and not just once a month?

I just got a scale to actually weigh the rats i've been giving my boa, and it turns out that they've been around 12% instead of the 8% i think they're supposed to be ): I only fed them (small rats) because they looked equal to his girth as I've been told. I see a slight bulge but nothing crazy. Have i been ovefeeding him? He doesn't look fat or anything but I know they show it first internally. he is 2 and a half years and i feed him every 14 days. i'm thinking about going back down to weaned, but i only have 30 gram weaned, which idk if it's enough... I would feel horrible if i've been feeding him way too much

There she is, my beautiful first boa. Now to think of a name...

The place Im getting this little guy from couldn’t tell me much other than hypo T Positive Columbian Boa. Does this look like a red tail?

what do you guys think about this tank

i paid $40 for this 75g tank with a background already in it 🙏🏼, i feel like this was a good deal it use to be for a ball python, i know ill needa go bigger for a boa but mines only 2ft rn so i definitely have some time toll he gets 6+ feet (

Making a new enclosure for my bci am doing a bioactive enclosure and from the past I've noticed my guy doesn't really trample his plants, so I wanna go kind of crazy, and in the past I had only ever used things like bermiliads and pathos, so would love some suggestions on some nice plants. That'll provide good cover that aren't necessarily too delicate. That being said though, I'm not worried about him, trampling them.

Je me suis dit que vous aimeriez voir ses iridescences

Oui il est vivant, même pas drogué 🤣

Vous aussi ils sont aussi calmes ? Je peux vraiment tout faire il s'en fout

It's time to upgrade Carmella's home. She's been in this Glass one since we got her about 7 months ago. We're definitely going with a PVC one, this humidity has been a pain to keep in. I was wondering if there was anything I should know about the PVC Enclosures? I was looking at this site called ReptileKages, but figured I'd post here just in case someone knows better.

In terms of size, she's in a 3ft one now, so obviously looking at 4ft, but seeing as she's roughly 4ft herself, I should look into the 5ft ones I imagine. Also, I assume the lighting, heat lamp, temp thermo can stay the same?

Thanks again for all the help. Excited to get her in a new home.

Interested in seeing your favorite enclosures, bought or built. Maybe some recs of who to watch do builds?

Et pourquoi prendre un support quand on peut en prendre plusieurs ?

Hi folks

Ive set up my first enclosure for a boa and I was wondering where i should place my thermostat and hygrometer in the enclosure.

In the picture is the temporary placement of a few hides (dont worry, ive got some fake plants and climblable material, just not in there yet so I can access the meters in the back.

Ive got some temporary placements with some tape, but i was wondering if any of you got tips for me as to where and how to put them down.

Thanks!

Hello!

Im looking to buy my first sand boa and I'm looking to adopt a sand boa in the NC / SC (preferably near the Charlotte or Columbia area).

Any breeders near by?

I can’t stop posting this mesmerizing creature. Very lucky to have him. 🖤💗🤍
