Update on new girl (rainbow boa)

Plissken

Crazy Snail Lady
Here are some brand new pictures of Willow, my baby rainbow boa. She's just shed so she looks great at the moment. And I got the iridescence!!

She's a violent little thing tho when she gets hungry. She practically lunged at me on Tuesday and she's already tagged me on the thumb :crazy02:

VERY nice! What great shots - I love that you got the iradescence! She's really stunning! I just adore her pattern!
 
Thanks guys! I am really pleased with her. I'm hoping to see some serious growth over the next few months; prior to my attaining her she was fed on tiny pinkie mice which were WAY too small for her.

Is this a Columbian or a Brazilian Rainbow?

In a previous thread we debated that. No one really agreed in the end, I figured Columbian based on the pattern, others said maybe not because of the base colour being to light and pattern to dark. It's either a very nice coloured columbian or possibly a columbian crossed with some other sub-species. Definitely not a the Brazilian it was sold as. In the end Plissken decided to just call it a Rainbow Boa and be happy with having an amazingly cool looking snake.
 
Thanks guys! :cheers:

Not sure - probably colombian, but first time around I posted her pics nobody was sure what she was so I'm saying rainbow until she grows up a bit and reveals herself, lol...

Oh she's beautiful!
This is gonna my dream snake now, has been for a few months
How much did she run you?

Thanks!
I think she cost around (equivalent of) $200. Bear in mind you can probably get something like her cheaper, but I fell in love with her... the price wasn't terribly important.
She's a tad nippy, but she is a darling little thing. If you want one, I'd recommend them.

Yeah, that's a great way of putting it. Thanks ansterr. ;)
 
Very beautiful RB!! I'm sure she will only get more stunning as she grows..and I do hope she mellows out for you :)

Yeah, she looks pretty Brown in the pictures so she could be Columbian. But then again she might a different locality all together as well.
From all the young Brazilians I have seen, they have been more Redish in color.
 
Shes gorgeous Becky!!! Great pics! I cant wait to see her when she starts getting REDDD!!!!
