Hi John, Ohhhh I'm glad ur keeping ur boa I have 2 Columbian Rainbow Boa's and they have such sweet natures. I bought them more 4 my Grandaughter as she can't hold my other snakes Psalmopoeus irminia sure r beautiful arboreal T's. Neat collection.


Hi Matt/Stigg, Somebody else who luv's snakes coooooooool, I've got 5 and if I had more room I'd definately have more. Nice collection u've got there. In had a Togo Starburst (beautiful T) I bought him as a WC adult, I guess I was lucky 2 get 6 months out of him (no more WC T's 4 me)

I hope u all enjoy the site

[mary walters]

Sooo you are the Stig hehe, you wish

[Matthew Baines]

Oh hear come all the jokes i have heard a million times before *yawn* joy!
I cant even drive so i dont think i am the stig the name comes from stigmata which comes from when i was a chef and just starting out and i would accidently remove a part of my hand (Usually a finger tip )with a very sharp knife without knowing and bleed alot and carry on without knowing until i saw all the blood.

[mary walters]

Ah, yet another chef eh, Andy Hood, Colin and I are too funny enough

[Matthew Baines]

Well ex chef was savoy trained and lost my passion im now a aspiring dj and i help my dad with his farm and corn merchants . (Its great because i get all my animal needs for cost price and its amazing how much mark up the general public pay)

welcome to the forums everyone
Gary, that sounds like a rather large Salmon Pink, I have an 8" L. klugi so imagining another 2 inches on top of that is a marvellous thought. Any chance of a pic? Did you raise it from a sling?

[Gary Bett]

I've had wincy(L.parahybana) for about 5 1/2 yrs she was probably around 6-7 inches when i got her.she can be a little temperamental but she does occasionally come out for a wander.makes my hands look small,lol.i've just had my tape measure out she's actually 9 1/2 inches.I'll try and get a pic of her she seems in quite a content mood so poss. on my hand too
