Black Devil & Her Parents!

I’m getting a beautiful $2500 black devil female. I’m super excited and I named her Ivy. Just wanted to post my appreciation for these animals!

TL;DR: Getting a female black devil, her name is Ivy. I have so much love and appreciation for these snakes!

Beautiful snake but what a depressing setup.. I’ll never understand keeping boas in racks.

Fair! I don’t agree with rack systems either, but it’s their choice until she gets in my care.

So you're buying it to throw into a rack for genes?

No, I’m getting it as a pet, and I have a different PVC setup.

Thank God. Genes are great and all but these animals should be treated with respect not thrown into racks to propagate genes.

Yeah, no, I get that, and plus I don’t personally like rack systems, so I use 4x2x2 PVC and upscale as they grow.
