4 ft orange 03' major reverse stripe tail. If I did not raise him up from a new born I would think he was fake.

Is that really an 03? I have several 03 boas that I feed once per week and NONE are that big...OR is it just the fact that its a suri? I think its awesome either way but I was just curious.

Yes, he is an 03' and he is small compared to a female sibling and I feed them less than once a week at this point. I feed the males smaller amounts than the females starting around 1-1.5 yrs. Got to feed the males at fairly frequent intervals to keep them healthy and happy, just not the quantity. My Suri male that produced for me this year was 5.5-6ft and only 3.5 yrs at breeding and he did not tire out and get sick like a lot of males do. These are genetically the largest boas I have owned and I own several of these and have owned over 100 boas, but mostly BCC. I recently aquired an adult female relative and she is a monster. Her temporal lobes make her head look so wide she looks like she has large venom sacks in there.
