Many breeders have isolated specific genetic traits to breed some exciting "morphs" of Colombian Red Tail Boa Constrictors. Look forward too seeing pictures of these morphs as we expand our boa projects in the upcoming months and years. Adult Colombian Red Tail Boas grow to 4' - 9' foot lengths with some exceptional specimans reaching 11'.

    Extractions: We keep our boas in enclosures that are designed with snakes in mind so their depth and width are is greater then their height. We use sweaterbox racks for neonates. It is important to make sure that your enclosure is escape proof. It will need to be large enough to contain a hide and a water dish as well as have a heat gradient. Your snake should have enough room to have its entire body either in the hot spot, or the cool spot. Heating Racks and tanks should be set up to have a good heat gradient of approximately 95 F on the hot side and 75 F on the cool side. Heat tape or under tank heaters with a rheostat/thermostat is recommended to achieve this. Without some sort of temperature regulation, it would be very easy for your heating system to reach temperatures that were harmful to your snake. We absolutely recommend AGAINST using electric heat rocks for any reptile. They have been known to cause severe injury and even death by burning.

Like all members of this group, boas are constrictors—that is, they kill their prey by squeezing it to death and then they swallow it whole. Boas use the coils of their body to suffocate their prey, rather than crushing it, as is commonly believed. They can stretch their jaws wide apart to swallow animals larger than their heads. Depending on the size of its prey, a boa may take several weeks or longer to digest its food. Many of the exceptionally large snakes of the world are of this family, but not all boas are large. Some are no more than 50 cm (20 in) long when fully grown. Boas vary greatly in color and pattern.

    Extractions: This is one of the most popular pet snakes due to their great temperament and beautiful markings. All the baby boas sold by California Zoological Supply are captive or farm bred. The baby season starts in January and ends around June. Boas are arboreal (tree climbing) snakes, so provide lots of climbing branches so they can move about. They are also nocturnal (active at night) so you will more than likely not see them move much during the day. These are great animals for anyone who wants something impressive and of a nice size but one that doesn't get too large. Albino Boa Constrictors are also slowly showing up on the market. The price is still prohibitive for most hobbyists, but should decrease in a few years. The enclosure should be no shorter than ½ the snakes body length. Baby Boas can live in a 20-gallon aquarium for up to a year but be prepared to get a larger enclosure later on. Boas are notorious escape artists so your enclosure can never be too secure. To avoid respiratory infections, the enclosure should provide plenty of ventilation. A secure hiding place is also important.

    Extractions: BOA CONSTRICTOR DE AFGODSLANG Dit dier is absoluut mijn favoriet. Dit op de eerste plaats vanwege zijn uitermate vriendelijk en rustig karakter. Als je een nakweek dier zelf groot brengt en deze regelmatig hanteert zijn ze zeer goed “handtam” te krijgen. Uiteraard moet je altijd in je achterhoofd houden dat deze boa in volwassen formaat gevaarlijk kan zijn. Zelfs een “tamme” constrictor kan zijn baasje op een dag groot letsel toebrengen. Een volwassen dier kun je beter niet alleen hanteren. Zorg altijd dat er iemand in de buurt is die kan helpen als het nodig is. Een 2 e reden waarom de constrictor mijn favoriet is, is vanwege zijn schitterende uiterlijk. Een indrukwekkende kop, prachtige zadels en zeer gevarieerde kleuren en dan niet te vergeten die prachtige staart (vaak mooi rood). En dit alles gecombineerd met een forse lichaamsbouw en een indrukwekkende lengte, tussen de 1.80 en 3.00 m. (grotere dieren zijn echter bekend). De vrouw zal vaak forser en zwaarder zijn als de man. Van deze boa zijn diverse ondersoorten bekend. De B.c. constrictor, B.c. imperator, B.c. Orophias, B.c. nebulosus, B.c. amarali en de B.c. occidentalis

Mannen bereiken zelden een lengte van meer dan 250 cm. Vrouwen kunnen wel 300 cm. of meer worden ! Om zeker te zijn van het geslacht van uw slang, dient een sondering te worden uitgevoerd. Laat dit altijd door een ervaren iemand doen, anders loopt u het risico de slang blijvend te beschadigen. VOEDSEL TEMPERATUUR Gemeten in de koudste hoek van het terrarium, dus zo ver mogelijk van de warmtebron vandaan moet de temperatuur overdag ongeveer 26 tot 32 graden bedragen. De temperatuur onder de warmtelamp mag tot ongeveer 40 graden oplopen. 's Nachts mag de algemene temperatuur niet onder de 22 graden zakken. GESCHIEDENIS EN HERKOMST DE CONSTRICTOR ALS HUISDIER Ondanks zijn grootte en indrukwekkende uitstraling kan de constrictor zich ontpoppen als prima huisdier. De dieren zijn zeer tam te krijgen. Het beste is om ze regelmatig te hanteren waardoor ze gewend raken aan de omgang met de mens. Bedenk u bij de aanschaf alleen wel goed dat het dier een lengte van ca. 3 meter zal bereiken en dat u ooit bv. konijnen moet gaan voeren. Lees ook eens mijn artikel over Boa constrictors.

She came into our lives on April 16th, 2002, and has made a wonderful addition to our family, which is currently composed of two humans, two dogs, and a snake. Angelica was born on April 13, 2001 at the facilities of Mr. Jeff Ronne / The Boaphile , one of the largest and best-known breeders of boa constrictors in the world. She is from Jeff's "Fine Line" bloodline, so named for the distinctive pattern of blotches, also known as "saddles", on her back. If you get a good look at her, you'll see that the saddles themselves are very narrow and are connected by very fine lineshence the name, Fine Line. Angelica is housed in a Boaphile Plastics enclosure that measures 48" wide X 29" deep x 24" tall. The enclosure itself is composed of two levels; only the lower level is visible in this camera. However, you can also see the two hide pots that she uses when she wants a little privacy, her water bowl, and her two climbing sticks that she loves to perch onespecially in the afternoon, or when she wants to be fed, or whenever she just feels like "hanging out"!

    Extractions: Mistranslations in the Chinese, Japanese, and Vietnamese versions Is the boa constrictor in 'The Little Prince' different from the one in 'Harry Potter'? (Japanese version) Boa constrictors don't exactly figure large in most people's lives, but for some reason they occur in two popular works of children's literature: The Little Prince Le petit prince Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone by J. K. Rowling. In Chapter One of The Little Prince the author in his childhood showed adults a drawing of a boa constrictor ( serpent boa in the original French) that had swallowed an elephant. Unimaginative adults thought it looked like a hat. The author drew another picture showing the elephant inside the boa constrictor, whereupon adults advised him to concentrate on his schoolwork. Much later in the book, the author, now an adult himself, meets the mysterious little prince who instantly recognises the picture as a boa constrictor that has swallowed an elephant. In Chapter Two of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone , Harry talks to a boa constrictor at the zoo. According to the sign, boa constrictors are from Brazil although the boa constrictor on display was born in the zoo. In a moment of confusion, Harry unconsciously lets the snake escape.

    Extractions: [Back to Snake Care Sheets] General Information Distribution Habitat Adult Size — Female Boa Constrictors can be expected to reach sizes of 305 cm to 375 cm (10' - 12'). Males stay a little bit smaller, generally around 244 cm (8'). Baby boas are between 36 cm and 56cm (14" - 22"). Temperament Longevity Captive Care Rating Diet : Young - hopper mice; Adults - small rabbits Temperature : 25OC to 29OC (76 to 85 F). Space : A fully grown Boa Constrictor can be housed in a minimum sized enclosure of 6'x2'x2'. Younger boas can be kept in a 20 to 35 gallon terrarium until they get a little larger. Breeding : Boa Constrictors are sexually mature at 2.5 to 5 years of age. Cycling is necessary to induce breeding which normally occurs between September and February. Gestation usually lasts 4 to 8 months with litters of 25 to 30 produced. Special Requirements : Boa Constrictors are a pretty hardy snake. As long as you give them enough space and remember to keep them warm (as it is sometimes hard to keep a large enclosure warm), you should have a long lived and healthy snake.
