View Full Version : New Girl
JOHNS6068 12-03-2008, 11:09 PM My wife is a dog groomer at a local vet clinic and a co worker of hers who's husband had this girl didn't have time for anymore so I decided to take her in. Big healthy virgin normal female about 6 1/2 years old. I think she is close to shedding as she is really dark. So some updated pictures after she sheds will be needed =) She is the biggest now in my collection. I'm guessing between 6-7 feet long she's pretty heavy as well. I'm bad at estimates so if that doesn't look right that's why. I will get a more accurate measurement in the next few days. I'm not 100% sure about her attitude yet...she hasn't been handled much lately so that's the reason for the crappy cage pic's as well. Call me a wuss but I believe in safety first (lol) this chick is packing I can tell!!! I think she will be fine the guy made her out to be worse then she seems attitude wise so far. Maybe she's just waiting for the right time to unleash the furry?? I hope not =) The guy even had the original card of her Dam and sire and who the breeder was. I thought that was kinda cool he had kept that on hand even though she looks to be 100% normal from her genetics. But it doesn't hurt to have healthy normal girl on hand. Especially if I can find a Mr right now!!

Chris 12-03-2008, 11:10 PM Very cool Boa. Congrats on the addition.
BryonsBoas 12-03-2008, 11:16 PM Nice looking classic normal. fairly clean , blocky saddles , great build. A pastel or hypo would clean up the babies right enough.

Thanks!! I have been thinking maybe a really nice Hypo male as well. For this girl and I have a pastel female who will be a year or so. Looking for a guy who would work well for both plus I like the Hypo's =) But I need some more cages right now before anymore arrivals in the boa department =) Boas are growing on me more and more :D
Sputnik 12-03-2008, 11:37 PM Congrats on the new addition, she looks great to me! :cool:

ReptileMan27 12-03-2008, 11:52 PM Very cool congrats :), good luck with her :)
JOHNS6068 12-04-2008, 12:34 AM Well the attitude didn't take long to show!!! I went to put her water bowel in and was greeted as so....Took her a good 15 minutes to shut her trap and stop hissing. I can verify a nice set of teeth. The door needed to be closed during picture time as I'm in lack of a good zoom lenses right now and her range is far and accurate!!! I think I just startled her maybe.....

She beautiful and feisty. That would make me back off too.
Mrs. Sputnik 12-04-2008, 01:01 AM Nice looking newbie & congrats on her
She looks good in spite of her apparent attitude. I've got a normal male that would look good all wrapped up in that :lol:
JChandler 12-04-2008, 06:36 AM What a big ole girl....Congrats :rockon:

earthpig23 12-04-2008, 01:16 PM she just wanted a kiss lol nice girl you picked up there
xanaxez 12-04-2008, 01:24 PM shes a nice looking girl but as usual has the typical female attitude going on lmao although we know (some) females barks are louder than there bites i dont think that would be the case for her, i think shes going to put a world of hurt on your hand or arm if she gets the chance, so GOOD LUCK and better you then me lmao :master: :lol::yourock:
Gator 12-04-2008, 03:04 PM Congrats! Maybe the good karma you got taking her in will come back to you with her settling down! :lol:
Rick247 12-04-2008, 03:27 PM she just wanted a kiss lol nice girl you picked up there
Hell yea just give her a big ole smooch. LOL
Sidviciouser 12-04-2008, 06:47 PM Boas are growing on me more and more :D
I think they are quite addicting. That is a great looking normal. Who was the breeder?
She would go great with a motley too, but I do like the hypo idea. I think the motleys will be priced about right by next year.
grunt_11b2007 12-08-2008, 01:24 AM Very nice big girl! Hypos kick ass. I hope she calms down a bit for you.. Let us know how she does for you.
