As promised, I am posting some pictures of my snakes underside. I've taken her to the vet since then because she was making some wheezing noises, and he said it didn't concern him. Here are the pictures anyway. Sorry about the low res, all I've got is a 2 megapixel camera that's at least five years old.















My girlfriend is convinced that she's a Corn Island boa, and other pictures I've seen of them depicted some pink bellies. The vet said he wasn't concerned about burns because the entire scales weren't pink, just the middle of them, and he couldn't find any other signs of septicemia.



Also, I bought a new boa last night. The pet store sold her to me as a red tail, but I've seen boas with much redder tails in that very tank, she does remind me of a picture of a Suriname red tail I found. Tell me what you think.

















She hasn't even gone into her hiding spot yet, she spends all of her time between the water dish and the tank. Though in the pet store she shared a tank that size with three other boas and no hiding spot, so I'm not sure she understands the concept yet. Oh well, she'll figure it out.



Thanks for reading.
