Boa Quick Pics.

[Just_Joshin]

Hey Guys,

Here is a couple of quick pics of me with one of the Boa's that i'm lucky enough to get to work with. This LOVELY girl is the smallest of the lot but as you can see she is still a big girl. She currently weighs in at 8kg. Sorry the pics aren't great. I'll be getting some better ones hopefully, tomorrow morning if i duck up there in the morning to get a few shots.

In case your wondering she is a Red-tail Boa and her name is Feather.

I thought the post was about Boas...
Do they allow you any other "display animals" meaning different species of Boas in OZ?
Where did that one come from, as a matter of intrerest?
Just interested...
