I have a 10 year old male boa (boa constrictor imperator) that needs a new home. I took him in ~6 months ago and he was a bit thin. He now eats just fine on frozen/thawed rats. He is relatively short for a boa, right aroung 5 feet. Please don't respond if you cannot or will not be able to take of him properly.

how's the temperment? and what are you looking to get for him?

9/14/2006 7:54:10 PM

His temperment is great. As long as you can provide a good home, with a decent sized enclosure, he is free.

9/14/2006 8:12:18 PM

what size cage do you have him in now? I would probably need to go buy something, because I don't think I have anything quite big enough.

9/14/2006 8:21:25 PM

if i didnt have a few students who are petrified of snakes i'd take him in.

but good luck.


if i hear of anyone whos looking for a boa i'll let them know

I currently keep him in a cage that is 3' wide by 2' deep. There are some reasonably priced plastic cages available from different manufacturers or a large aquarium would work.

well, that's not too bad...I might have one at home, I'll have to check. Would you be willing to sell what you have him in now if I don't?

9/15/2006 12:36:10 PM

how big to boa's usually get? i have a ball python (male) and i know he'll get to be like 3.5 - 5ft..

9/15/2006 12:47:42 PM

females can reach 8ft or better but it depends on how often they're fed


at 10 years old, this one might not grow too much if he's kept on a basic diet.
if you power feed him (feeding as often as he'll take food) then he could get bigger

9/15/2006 1:00:06 PM

ABOUT HOW AGRESSIVE CAN THEY GET? ARE THEY AS CALL AS BALL PYTHONS BC MY BALL IS MAD CHILL..

9/15/2006 1:46:11 PM

check your pm

9/15/2006 4:14:34 PM

yea.. i'm very interested...
Temperament is important. how does he handle..
my ball used to just chill around my neck...

9/15/2006 4:24:26 PM

boas are the shit someone better get him

9/15/2006 5:38:27 PM

I thought this guy had a home but it doesn't seem like it will work out. Anyone interested?

10/17/2006 7:12:30 PM

I'd love to have him if you can provide me with some sort of living arrangement... i might even be willing to buy it off of ya if it's cheap enough. Let me know.

10/26/2006 12:03:03 AM

hey let the booger go free.......no 5 foot snake wants to live out its worthless existance in a cage 3 feet long.....jeeze man.....ill put in a few bucks if you want to ship him to a jungle or zoo or somewhere where he can enjoy life outside of a cramped cube

10/26/2006 12:10:02 AM

is he still available to a good home?

10/26/2006 12:25:54 AM

Had a few inquiries but no takers yet. He is a great snake and will make an outstanding pet.

10/27/2006 11:04:38 AM
