5 years old and six feet...

Levine Apr 11, 2004 02:57 PM

Are his years of growth spurts over? I have other boas but he seems like a runt hes had the same diet as the other two. Until they both outgrew him. My two other Columbian boas which I purchased at the same time are 8.2 ft and 9.5 feet. Will boas grow 2 or 3 feet after five years of age?

Let me guess that the other two are female and this is your lone male..? I would say that he may get a little bit bigger but with my collection the males tend to just stay smaller no matter how much they eat and eat and eat.. some of them are just little piggys too... but anyways i would say that a good 6 foot male is a healthy little breeding machine.. We would love to see some picture of the guys on here. Good luck with all of them

Sincerely,
Rose Hipskind
