I saw your pic earlier and it got me thinking, what does a 9.5 foot columbian that weighs 62lbs. eat to satisfy itself? I thought bci's get up to 8-9, and the bcc's 12? What is the longest columbian on record, do you know? That girl is a site indeed and being there in person makes it that much bigger. I hope mine stays a little smaller haha, n/p

I have 2 boas that were born in 1997 like that one, and neither is nearly that size. The first time I saw some pictures of that snake I thought "It ain't that big". So I got out the longer of my two girls and had my wife take a picture. When I looked at my pictures compared to his I was actually a little embarrassed. They sure look bigger in real life. I can only imagine how big that one would look in person.

it has that nice, slightly squarish body shape that (to me) looks healthy and in good shape. Very impressive animal.

...yeah shes much bigger in person!...we never powerfed her,but her mother was 10' but only weighed 45 lbs.,so maybe its genetic
i have her in with my 6' pastel male so just maybe well get some babies...by the way she eats 2-3 5 lb. rabbits every two weeks and she gets lots of exercise...
