Staying Positive...

Lately the majority of the posts on this and many other forums is talk of the potential legislation even on facebook everything seems to be filled with negativity so just about every day on my lunch break after the gym I make sure to grab a boa and either take photos or just handle them...try it...it will remove the stress that is currently occupying everyone's mind.

Enjoy your boas they are pets. For me I enjoy all things involving art and have taken pics nearly every day to figure out what works best for me and learning how to actually use the features in my camera thanks to both Alex Burgos and Chaz help this is what I have been able to come up with...still working on getting that same lens Chaz has until then these photos will have to do...

Pamela freshly shed as of this afternoon...

I always love watching their muscles contract as they move about the ground


A gorgeous Boa that arrived earlier today I just HAD to photograph! These Bloods from Chris are absolutely phenomenal. The color on these is unmatched and his adults look exactly like this girl...I was blown away when I opened the box I am sure she will look even better if that is possible once she settles in more! INSANE COLORATION on these guys. If you have considered getting one I would do it.


I love the look of photos like this one once I get the new lens it will be on point!!!

Thanks again to Chris for this gorgeous girl!

Not the full size images they could have been but wanted the images at a reasonable size.

Hopefully everyone's season is going well and adding in new animals into their collections to enhance their projects! I have a few more I need to photograph and finally only 2 more animals I am paying off!

Thanks for checking out the photos!

Thanks Larry those Bloods are just Bloods with 50% Hog Influence...Once I get the new lens I am wanting to get it should display Pem even better.

Thanks for the link Larry howevere there are plenty of other topics here where that link would have been much more approrpriate....

I see the listing as an opportunity to shred this flimsy piece of lies and win a law suit. I do like the word FINAL RULING, and Im very glad that dangles source with USFWS was wrong.

Thanks for a post with boas. We know the battle we are fighting is important but we agree you have a very good point. Enjoy our animals daily.

Pamela is absolutely looking amazing. How is your little T plus arab impersonator doing?

That's what they are their for pets and a relief from the stresses of the world.

Pamela is always on point I'm sure she will be fired up sometime this week that impersonator was talked away by Tony P so he's got her now. She was a gorgeous snake!

I cant believe you parted with her. Yes she was a very gorgeous snake. She was a nice peek at what t plus arabs SHOULD look like. Perfect pattern. Hopefully he posts her a lot on here so we can see her.

I guess if anyone could talk you out of her, then it would Ant. Cant wait to see what he does with her.

Its always a true pleasure to view your pic's!

Aaron_Houts Jan 26, 2012 07:35 AM

I agree!
I'm totally focused on taking Action against this stuff and am working hard, but I make sure to go into my boa room everyday to remind myself WHY I'm taking action.
Great snakes and great message, Brandon!
