In inches, they don't have any feet!
Puns aside, I'm a new member here. I made a bit of a silly thread already before reading through the forum a bit better (where I found the answer) but lesson learned. I have had my boa (admittedly my first real snake but not reptile) for three months now and she will be a year old on December 19th! She is a BCI "red tail" around 4 feet long. Her previous owners had her on live (for no other reason than they liked watching it....) so she is a touch scarred but while those heal to the best degree they can, I can assure both you and her that she will never be bitten by a rat again. She has been on F/T with me the entire time and will never come off them. When she isn't in her bin, she's on my shoulders helping me do housework (while we can together) or in my lap getting her head rubbed while we watch TV. Out of curiosity, how often do these beautiful snakes enjoy head rubs? She leans into them for me. I also catch her tilting her head and her eyes following my movements very similarly to a bearded dragon. When we are out of this apartment next year she will likely be getting a nice, big acrylic enclosure but bins will do her until then. I also just purchased a corn snake (who's morph I cannot recall at the moment) with a neat skull marking on his head to join our family. Our only other pet is a special needs crested gecko at the moment, though we will be getting a puppy to train as my service dog come spring.
All in all, I look forward to joining this forum, meeting its members and learning as I go.
