Boa Constrictors!

@caron

Hi Caron

It’s a BCI Boa Constrictor Imperator, commonly known as the Central American boa. They get 6 to 10 foot normally, are a heavy-bodied, constrictor native to Mexico, Central America, and northwestern South America. Yes CA BCI boas are very common.

I had Peak A Boo out today. I am so glad she is very tame accept on feeding day. She has a very big head and I know it would hurt alot if she ever bit me. She is around 7 feet and 30 to 35 lbs. and she is 14 years old. She is a Southern Brazilian Amarali BCA boa.

I also had Rose out today she seemed to really injoy the hot and humid weather today. She still seems to be in ok shape with all her spine problems. Was moving around ok and did not seem in any pain when I would pick her up to move her. Had her out for about 30 minutes.

So I would think the heat may be comforting for her spine issue? Maybe not but she is a beaut! :star_struck:

She’s such a stunning animal, this head has to be one of the prettiest heads on a boa IMO. So bold and contrasting. What a pretty girl :heart_eyes:

Some of you folks are aware my journey to boa ownership was delayed due to some family medical issues but I’m happy to say that the worst of that is behind us now and I have been able to bring a couple of boas into our lives! I’m super happy to finally be able to contribute some nice pics to all the beautiful ones posted by you all over the years!

Hi Brian nice to hear everything is ok now. Nice looks boas you have there. Love the widow peaks and the tail colors on the Suriname. Is the other one a blood boa? Should have more sunglow motley jungles next year like the one you wanted and maybe even better looking. Anyway glad to see your back and keep posting pics of your boas.

Thanks Tom! Yes, the reddish one is a blood boa. I’d love to get one of your jungle motley sunglows one day. Not sure if I’ll ever breed, but one of those mixed with my blood boa could make some amazing sun dragons in a couple generations! Right now I am just really enjoying building a relationship with these two.
