hey , i havent posted in a while , but i wanted to share an interesting story for you guys. A few weeks ago , i road past a house here in richmond virginia , that had a humongous columbian boa constrictor sitting outside. I had forgotten about it , and was once again driving down the road , when i noticed it was still there! it is now october , and here in virginia its getting pretty chilly , so i got in touch with the guy , and was informed that he was moving , and his wife wouldnt let him have the snake , so he was at a loss for what to do with it. I asked him if he wanted me to take it off his hands , and sure enough he said yes! so now im very happy , and also have another addition to my snake collection . id like to think that i saved this snakes life, and i am very glad that he was willing to give it up. thanx for the time .
