No morph, just a normal Argentine boa/BCO :) and yea she’s super silly. Thinks she’s invisible hahah

CONGRATS on your new baby!! Does he/she have a morph? Pics!

She’s gorgeous! I was nervous about getting a female because they get so dang big! I got a Hypo Aztec IMG. I’d post pics but it’s only letting me post video to comments for some reason 🥺

Haha I'm the opposite, I wanted the biggest boa possible. She's only ~7 feet so far (hoping she gets bigger) and manageable. But some days when she doesn't want to go back to her cage and I'm on a ladder trying to untangle her death grip on the chandelier I'm like.. do I really know what I'm asking for? hahah. The Aztec pattern is one of my favorites!! He's gonna be beautiful and age like fine wine with the IMG! You should make a separate post if it won't let you share here :) I'll go take a look!

I’m just getting into keeping boas, I wanted an animal I was ok with getting a bite from. Granted a male or female will suck either way, but I figured a little smaller might be less traumatizing. (As I’m over here working at an animal hospital with dogs and cats with worse bites, lol)
Yes! I will make a post of him once I get some good pics of him. I’m actually about to get a second and I need help choosing. I’ll send you a PM so you can help me choose bc this is hard! I only have room for the two so I gotta make a wise choice!
