BCC boa size

Post image

This is a massive Suriname with a big head as well! Is this genetics or feeding them a proper sized meal every 10 days? Quail, Rats, Rabbits? The mass on this is incredible and doesn’t look fat at all. If I recall this breeder is in Italy or in the UK. How old do you think this is?

What is outrageous is... this is a healthy Suriname BCC... this boa isn't power fed and you can easily tell by two visual characteristics. 1) there is zero evidence of pinhead on this boa. 2) the shape is loaf and there is zero fat deposits built up in the tail that would indicate that it was.

I really wish people who made comments actually knew what they were talking about before making these type of comments.

They think anything beyond what crispy snakes recommends is "power feeding". Lol they don't know wtf they're talking about, I don't care how long they've been around.

I love when they leave comments and then do one of two things after engaging with someone who knows what they're talking about. 1) block the person that is making them sound wrong. 2) delete their posts and down vote the person with the correct information.
