Argentine Boa, first snake!

omnifelpur Aug 20, 2003 02:12 PM

I picked her up yesterday and she's a absolute darling n_n Very curious and tame. I'm a new snake owner, so I was nervous at first but things are going really well n_n The breeder said she would stay 70% peach colored when she grows up, he has a baby from the last birthing of the same parents. I'll take better pics tonight.

Looks more like some sort of Central American boa, unless it's just a really bad pic...

I have to agree that it looks much more like a Nicaraguan or other Central American local boa. I had a male Nic almost identical in looks to your female and have had quite a few Argentines in the past. It may be a cross but I've never seen an Argie like that before. I'm not putting your animal down by any means so please don't take me wrong. It's still a very nice animal and I'm sure she'll give you lots of love!
