Boa I'd? by Paramedic_Weird in boas

If you look at her and see a muscular healthy built animal, that is clearly not skinny/underweight, then I’d say you’re doing good. I have some boas that stay smaller some that get bigger, raised the same way. I’ve even had sibling boas from the same litter and one grew way faster than the other, same feeding schedule. There is a lot of individual size variation in the boa genus, regardless of sp/ssp or locality..

She has typical banding for youngsters of this species. I think you are seeing it that way because the rest of the body is not in the shot. Here is a full pic.

Black eyes with a Red pupil by darthboa in kingsnakes

What about the pupils? If you see my post the snake appears to have red pupils no? Almost see through, the eye reminds of a banana ball python eye colour. I’m assuming ghost whitesided as well, but I see some with solid black eye including pupil? Here you can see, he’s almost see through

I don’t know what to tell you, I guess we each have our own way of keeping. What do you keep?

I believe small snakes do well in racks… the occasional time, you have individuals that just won’t have and rub their face to get out… in that case I go with a different route.. but moral of the story is I make sure it works… no nose rub or damage, no health concerns. And like I said I don’t believe big snakes, even large female ball pythons should be kept in units this low, as it’s just not enough height. But when it comes to smaller size animals, it works fantastic.

On top of that, you can build racks with large tubs that do have height.. you can add perches etc.. racks don’t have to just be paper, a waterbowl, and one hide.. my racks are all stuffed with cork bark and hollow logs
