ok here are some pics I took tonight. I have to say I traded the male for a different male. I had to and you will see why. The first two are the female, and the last two are the male. Anyone know some tricks for taming a fella down??? That male want’s my hand every time I get close. lol. Thanks for looking,

And as far as settling one down. yeah, all you have to do is mail it to me and I’ll send it back as soon as it calms down. Shouldn’t take more than 20-30 years.

Those...are the most gorgeous boas I have ever seen. The Peruvians Ive seen here have been pretty drool worthy. And I mean ever...like in 35 years of being around them. And other folks here have some pretty astounding specimines. You totally lucked out. Way to go!

thank you thank you!! I really did luck out!! The male is a nasty one though. lol. he really wants to take my hand off. I’m trying this dirty sock thing I heard about, and in about a week I’m going to attempt to pick him up. I’m sure I’ll get tagged, but hopefully he will be a one tag kind of guy. Thanks again everyone.

here is a pick of how he feels toward me!!

Lol Sounds like my Hog. Gorgeous, but nasty. I’ve given up on her not trying to bite me. She hasn’t gotten me yet, but I’m using a hook and much precaution to ensure it stays that way. I should take video of it one day. Hopefully your guy will calm down. I used a worn tee shirt to help tame down my DH for Snow. After about a week of the constant presence of my scent, he was less inclined to tag me and has not done it since then. I find it helps to just snatch her right up though and not give her a chance to posture on me. :-) On a side note ... if you ever need a home for those guys ...

hmmm, nah!! haha, but thanks.
So you used a worn tee shirt?? I think I will do that one instead of the dirty socks. Even though it’s just me in the room when I do it, I feel a little weird taking off my socks and throwing them in the cage. lol. Thanks for your tip. I just hope my guy isn’t too old to change his mean ole habit.

Yeah. I put it in the same area where her hide had been, so she was, essentially, using my shirt as a hide. After a week of that I reached in, snatched her up and she was fine. She’s still a bit iffy, but she’s getting better. She wasn’t well socialized when I got her, but I expect neonates to be nippy. Your guy may or may not get used to you to the point of not trying to tag you, but then again, he may not. My Hog was relatively well mannered until she had to go through treatment for a bad RI she had when I rescued her. No matter what I do she just seems fixated on hissing, striking at and throwing a fuss when I go to pull her from her tank, though she does tame down a bit once out. I may do the shirt thing with her too, but she’s far too big to use one as a hide. =-p Good luck with him though.
