Old boas.

calienteA1 Aug 23, 2005 08:15 PM

Do you guys have any old boas? How old and big is your oldest boa? I'm not talking 5-6 years old. I want to hear about older ones. Are your oldest boas tame? Lets see pics if you have some too. My only snake is 1year and 4 feet. I expect to keep her for her entire life.

Autumn is my oldest boa, she is 16 this year. I got her in 1998 (7 yrs ago) and at that time she was 9 years old and 5.5'. She just measured in at 7'7" this last month. Yes, she is very tame. I am her third owner. She had her first litter of babies in 2003 while in my care, 34 live. She is one of the sweetest boas when she wants to be I have some photos from when I first got her, but I need to scan them in. Anyways, here's a pic of me and her from last month.
I hope to have another 10 years with her.
