Like Christmas in July.....:)

I love waking up to find a freshly shed snake...It's like getting a brand new snake.
I snapped a quick flash photo as I'd already missed the good morning light. If I wait much longer than 8am, the light through the windows is too harsh and stark.

"Calcifer" Yearling Guyanan


I'm extremely happy to see this guy showing some color.

Thanks!

One thing I've realized, when it comes to "true" redtailed boas, there's a lot of luck involved. I'm still looking for that one "Grail" boa...One with HUGE peaks and a tail that covers over a third of it's body. Someday, I'll find it.

Getting closer... The key is, not only do they have to have the boa I'm looking for...It has to be AVAILABLE.

I've seen a few boas in the forum that would definitely fit my "Grail" status, but nobody is offering them for sale...which is understandable. I don't plan on parting with any of my carefully selected redtails either.

Thanks for the link!
