I have a hard time getting his color, but he is by far the reddest boa I have. I took these pics next to a big window.. there is a mixture of rain and snow coming down today.. I live at 7000 ft elevation so I can't often get pics outside during the winter.

yes I can, but not for a while.. he is blue right now. once he sheds I'll try and get some pics. I've had quite the experience with this guy.. he had a few regurges shortly after getting him - which I was told isn't too uncommon for WC animals. SO I was being extremely careful with feeding him.. I kept his meals soo small and was trying to do all the right things. well, it looks like he is safe now. he is up to small adult mice and hasn't had any regurges for about 4 months. the amazing thing is that he is shedding for the first time since I've had him.. I guess I was barely feeding him enough to stay alive, he actually lost weight in the first few months I had him. but he is growing now and I can't wait for his shed.... Pics to come.

thanks for asking,

Patrick
