So much for just keeping colubrids...

The wifey picked up this little girl on Sunday... and so it begins.




I didn't think we'd ever be getting a boa. Never say never, I guess.

Re: So much for just keeping colubrids...

Very pretty. It always ends up that way..."I don't want to keep ___." . Then a couple years later you end up getting one anyway.

America does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all. She well knows that by enlisting under other banners than her own, were they even the banners of foreign independence, she would involve herself beyond the power of extrication in all the wars of interest and intrigue, of individual avarice, envy and ambition, which assume the colors and usurp the standards of freedom. – John Quincy Adams (1821)

Adorable! It looks very similar to one of the ones I picked up. Was she at the table in the back left corner with all the gray bands?
