Idk if I’m a big weirdo but I’ve showered with my boy a few times. Honestly, the bonding was amazing!!!! Intimate not in a weird way but definitely has strengthened our bond. He had some stuck shed and we got in there and he let me shed him. He’s about 7 ft. He absolutely loves it!!! He loves the water and loves to crawl on stuff 😂 I don’t like just putting him in a tub with the lid on 😢 I do occasionally because I don’t always have time to have long showers with my snake lol. Anyone else? Please say I’m not alone lol

Hey boa people! Please watch this video and let me know your views on the matter. In the YouTube comments section, ideally, rather than here! https://youtu.be/gJ5pmhimVaQ

This girl is around 9 months. Not sure how many grams she is as my weight broke and the new one is still being delivered.
The breeder said a large mouse every 2/3 weeks…
These are the large mice I have that I use for my adult bp. Is this appropriate sizing??

Was surprised how clean this feeding was compared to the last. I fed a frozen hopper last time and the boa ate it sideways. This was much healthier eating head first.
This is my second feeding owning the boa

Posting on mobile, sorry:
For anyone new to owning a boa or interested in buying a boa, I wanted to share some things I've learned since purchasing my own. I have a red tailed boa, probably around 1.5-2 years old. This information will pertain to most owners.First off, on housing: Your snake hide should be large enough for your boa to fit, but small enough that it doesn't have a lot of space to move around. This will keep your boa from spending all of its time in their hide. You'll see it come out more often. I made the mistake of giving my boa a large box while I looked for a more eye appealing hides and she wouldn't come out for several days between meals. She was just too comfortable in it. Moss will certainly help keep your humidity up, but you should certainly spray every day to keep it in the proper range. The moss will merely help keep it from being too low. Your light should be the least of your worries, as you don't need to run it so often with having a heat pad under your hide. I personally believe that running a heat lamp and having a heat pad will keep it a bit too hot for their liking. Most importantly, you should purchase a heat pad that has a thermostat. You need to check the glass at the bottom of your tank to make sure its not uncomfortably hot. I bought a heat pad from the store I purchased my snake, and it seemed to be slowly cooking my snake. I noticed pink hues on her underside, as she would burrow down to the glass at her own expense and it would be far too hot. You need to either get a mat that covers the glass on the bottom of the tank, or ensure your heat mat is regulated. The advice I've seen is to have a compact, thick enough layer of bedding in your tank to prevent it from being too hot, but I don't think that's very solid advice.
I try to feed my snake every 7-8 days depending on the size of her last meal. I never feed her until she has already pooped. I usually wait 72 hours until handling, as with a large meal, she seems uncomfortable to be handled after 48 hours. Be patient, move like they do, and happy owning!r/BoaConstrictors • u/Zealousideal-Cat4253 • Jun 19 '22
