Male "fine line" boa from Steve Hammond

viandy Jul 22, 2007 02:01 PM

Here's the male fine line boa I got from Steve Hammond in 2004. I got them for the thin saddles, I never guessed they would turn out to be this colourful. Steve told me that some people have begun to call them "painted" boas. He said that he thinks that's a better description of them, but it would cause too much confusion if he started to use that name.
This guy did not want his picture taken. He's doing a ball python impression in one pic, and you can look at my hand and see that he's using more aggressive tactics there.

Here's the potential mate for male. She's just as squirmy, but used a more passive approach in trying to avoid the photo, She grabbed the stair bannister, the doorknob, wrapped around my arm and leg, anything she could reach as I was carrying her. Then I had to hold her down. You can't see her so well because of that, but I hope you still like the pic.

No, Steve Hammond/Exceptional Exotics, who first produced the Arabesque.
