I got this snake from my friend's uncle along with a cornsnake and a leopard gecko. He said it was a Brazilian Land Boa, but I have yet to find anything signifying that it is an actual type of snake. So I was wondering if you guys could help me out. He wasn't sure what the sex was, I think she's female and that her previous owner was an idiot. He kept her in a wooden box a little bigger than a 10 gallon tank. And she's 5 feet long. Brilliant. I put her in a bigger tank and she seems to be pretty sociable, she's only struck at anyone once since I've had her and we were putting her back into her cage after feeding, so that didn't really surprise me. The guy didn't know how old she was... said it could be anywhere from 2 to 10 years old because he couldn't remember. So I have no clue how big she's gonna get or what. So please please please help me.









She also has this really spiffy iridescent sheen to her when the light hits her that doesn't show up very well in these pictures.

Thanks,
Katie
