check out this boa

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
not sure if i like it or love it lol
i like the black all over, but the markings look washed out and faded
 
Ive seen some adult Argentines....and that is still a fat snake. Look at the creases along the sides...normal, healthy snakes do not have those. The boa is obese, regardless of its species.

:iagree:

not much else to say, i've never really been a fan of the dark plain morphs.
EDIT: except for the black goldenchild retic! hahaha.
 
I still disagree about the obesity. This particular species, as well as others (i.e. Blood Pythons) are a thick, hefty snake. My new Blood is 5' and a good 30lb (thick as my thigh) and he's not the least bit obese.

Some particular species are just heavier bodied, than most.

I agree Blood pythons are naturally fat-bodied snakes. Perhaps Argentines are too, but certainly not to the degree of Bloods or even columbian RTBs. Anyone with a brain and experience knows that healthy snakes do not have those creases, which is commonly known (or so I assumed) as a sign of a snake being overweight.

But whatever...may your snakes eat like kings and die young for all I care.
