Dave,
...You need a bigger office.
Jeff

>>I have been saving the best sheddings from my oldest boa for 16 plus years. Only the best ones are kept, those that are not torn, not messed in and found still fresh.
>>
>>I painstakingly turn them rightside out. Carefully straighten them, blow air inside and see that they settle out flat and straight. Then place magazines on top to press them flat. They are allowed to dry with the magazines on top.
>>
>>Finally they come to my office at work. The longest is 12 feet long, the boa is between 10 and 11 feet.
>>
>>Makes for a lot of conversations, many start with "Where'd you kill all those snakes?" which get quickly and politely corrected.
