So this is Burn. my almost two month old Brazilian Rainbow Boa who I brought home last sunday, she shed for me last night and ate for me tonight after a quick photo shoot. She weighed in at 31 grams last sunday and was roughly 1 foot 6 inches.

I'm still getting over the fact I own her and her brother as these guys have been such a long held dream. I'm so happy she had a perfect shed and didn't hesitate to have her first meal with me, I'm such a happy mommy, anyway PICTURES!











This is Quick Ben, Burn's Brother, I also received him last Sunday and he also ate his first meal with me without a problem. He happened to give me my first snake bite the other night as I went to spot check and didn't see him under cover and he got me three times haha, drew blood, I honestly didn't even notice it happened till he was finished, as soon as he realized what was happened he completely dropped his aggressive stance so atleast I know it wont be a repeat if I am super careful.

He was 32 grams when I brought him home and 1 foot 7 inches, so a tiny bit bigger then his sister, anyway pictures!

Holy cow, I wasn't expecting that! Those two are truly stunning. You definitely picked up a gorgeous pair, Valvaren. These pictures easily show why most people fall in love with BRBs. Thank you so much for posting them! btw, welcome to the bite club! :D While I've never gotten bit by Marius, I have received love taps from some of my other snakes.

Thanks everyone! I completely agree Jenn, so far they've changed quite a few minds on snakes with just these pictures :D, I can't imagine a bite from anything bigger haha!

Smart Bunny, I didn't realize it either I thought they were solid colors but I was pleasantly surprised!

Cliff, I'm so happy, they ate without any issue and i'm really glad she shed a perfect shed! I can almost completely relax haha!

Thanks guys for the comments! I'll take more pictures soon, haven't had them out for more then about 5-10 mins a day even though the female seems to really love being out. She had her second meal for me tonight and I was worried I would have to leave it in again but she pretty much just bit it and started eating it on the tongs, so atleast I know she is settled lol, i've never had a snake do that before!

Thanks guys! Moppet trust me I know what it is like to wait I wanted these guys for 3 years and always thought it would be another 10ish till I managed to get one, and back in sept my dreams came true and I got 2! The wait makes it that much sweeter.
