Has anyone ever noticed a crease on their Boas ventral
surface and what could it be caused from. I noticed a slight crease in two of my adult females and I have seen it on some other boas as well. A friend and I were discussing this and were trying to come to some conclusions. It was thought that it may have to do with the animals breathing as per the crease has only been seen in the chest area. I know that one of the females have never had any resp. problems, but the other I obtained it as an adult so I am not sure on her. But she is 100% healthy now. Also an female suri that I obtained with bad resp problems three years ago, wich is long since 100% healthy has no crease at all. As per the other boas I have seen it on they were animals in pet shops and other peoples pets, but seemed healthy. I am really trying to research what this could be so any opinions would be appreciated. Also please post if you have ever seen this in any of your adult boas. I love these snakes and I am constantly learning new things there are still so many unknow's in this hobby, but with the help of this forum we are all learning together.
Thanks
Josh
