This girl has quite a story.

I bought her as a "solomon island ground boa" at a show back in January of 2005. I knew she was wild caught, thought she was just a baby. She was supposed to be eating pinkies. Well, she went 8 months of being stubborn (I tried everything imaginable) until she ate a treefrog. Since then she got about one treefrog per month. Four weeks ago I FINALLY got her to take f/t pinkies. And by now it's quite obvious she's an adult since she hasnt grown at all, and I've been told she's a pacific tree boa.

Her name is Mystique, or Misty for short. She's a pretty cool snake but gives me lots of headaches, heh. She's always been very skinny (may not look it curled around my hand in the pics, but stretched out, its scary how thin she is).

So here are some pics of her I hope someday to get her a boyfriend and see if I could raise up some captive bred specimens, I don't like taking things from the wild. But these are simply awesome, small snakes.
