2009 Boa progression thread(pic heavy)

Oren, what did you do to Lotus!!??? She looks TICKED!!! Beautiful, but one angry mama!!! LOL.
Lotus is a total doll usually... but once food is involved( she received a snack-hopper) she becomes -very- defensive and has no problem with showing me exactly what she thinks of my "meager" food offerings...

She never hisses or bites... in feeding mode, she's a lunatic

Wow, I'm not sure how I missed this thread when it first came around (or when you posted new pictures of Phoenix for that matter). Your boas are stunning (this you already know), but Phoenix is by far my favorite! He is just fantastic, the color, his sweet little face, everything about him is perfect! Lotus is also wonderful, I love her angry face. :)
 
I felt kind of guilty for not taking the female Sunfires out for a stroll too... why should Phoenix get -all- the fun?

So here they are, showing all their feminine charm,

First is Venus:

How often have you seen such reduced melanin tongue on a DH Sunglow?

And here is Lotus, this flower certainly shows off it's thorns come feeding time...

Thanks for peeking :)
 
yeah, horrible thing, if only I had somewhere to ship them to so I won't have to look at them all day :rolleyes:
 
OMG! Stunning pictures of stunning boas. Gotta get me some of that. Lotus is quite the bipolar snakey, isn't she? Sweet, unless food is involved. Or maybe if not-enough-food is involved?

Love the tree pictures, they are really good.

Boas look so powerful & primitive when on trees or on the ground, and so sweet & beautiful when held. It's an amazing thing.
 
Most Boas are bipolar that way... if they are hungry, you need to be careful- They smell food in the vicinity and see something warm moving... it becomes all about instincts.

Only Lotus out of the trio managed to tag me, but both Phoenix and Venus tried to- all attempts were made immediately after or during feeding.

I am not concerned though, I have learned my lesson and have developed a safe routine.

Other than that though- you see how gentle they are... I love BCI's... you described them well... there's something very primal about them.
