 Little Lacey is doing so well!!!!

I have raised a few bps from their first shed and meal, and have started a few others, but this is my first time raising an RTB from birth, so I’m so excited that she is doing well.

before her first shed



taking her first meal



today, after her first f/t meal



just for fun, here’s her daddy today



and her newest room mate (not cage mate, just in the same room)

I know what you mean! Lacey came from a breeding between Spike, my adult male, and my friend’s beautiful 7’ 30-35lb female. I helped her sex the offspring, and I couldn’t believe how tiny they were. Lacey was 72g when I brought her home.

Mine was just born about 15 days ago and i got him a day or 2 after his first shed. He also ate F/T mice this week which was different because my other boas didnt eat the first few times i tried to feed them when they were babies, and when they did eat it was live mice. Also its surprisingly tame and used to handling already

Yeah, Lacey is doing really well w/ handling. The only time she bit me, she was a little aggitated because I was trying to help her with the little bit of shed stuck on her tail. She wasn’t very fond of that. Her first two or three meals were live, but she took the f/t with very little coaxing. I just drug is across the floor of her cage about 6 inches, and she struck.
