Hi everyone!
I got a Russian Sand Boa a few months ago and she is amazing. A little flighty but dang is she a monster. She will eat anything-mice/rats. I never have to worry about her appetite. She'll eat from tongs or off a plate. She does tend to strike if you approach her wrong though but her bite is harmless.

Here are some pictures..

The cage I also found on CL for cheap.. She loves to climb on the log.

Nice. I've considered getting into other sand boas. All I have now is a trio of Saharans.

Very nice! I love seeing more people getting the "less common" sandboas

She's an interesting one for sure. Little nippy though.. Always expect to give a little blood when handling. haha.

This is what you do before picking her up(to avoid a bite)
