Adult male Rosy Boas, Whitewater Albino and het

There's an article about Rosys in the new issue of Reptiles. The author, Ken Foose, has a LTC Whitewater from 1959. Captured as a full-grown adult. He estimates its age as 55-60 and it is still going strong!
I love the idea of an animal that I can share my senior years with, especially one as interesting and low-maintenance as a snake.
 
Wow, what beautiful Snakes. Remind me of the Sand Boas.. Minus the different Noses LOL

I held my first tonight actually. I LOVE it! lol Never held a Rosy though.
 
If only they were female :(

Nice looking Rosy's though. The second one could be my Bill Dozer's twin brother.
If you starting a Rosy project keep me in the loop down the road when those babies start piping. :)
 
I love em! I have been looking at Rosy's and Sand Boa's. I held my first Sand boa the other day..and So very different then corns in feeling. Lol
 
A long time ago I read some where that Rosy Boas were considered the most docile of all snake species and any bite is extremely unusual. Dont know if this is true but it is a very interesting snake.
 
We have names already picked out..The Albino is Rei which means friend, but sounds like a "ray" of sun and the Whitewater het Albino is Tikva meaning hope. At least that is what we have for now..once they get here next month, we may change our minds based on their personalities.
