Default Bitten ( Warning blood )
While feeding some of my boas tonight , although i was useing feeding tounges one completely missed his food , got my thumb and done a full on constriction of my wrist , and what was the 1st thing to come into my mind ? Wheres the camera lol( no point trying to force him off, he will let go when ready and theres no chance of doing him an injury that way either )

sorry for bad pics as one of my hands was a bit tied up at the time ,lol

see told you he would let go ( took about 5 minutes lol) , and yes he does have some retained shed on his head , but as long as his eyes are clear i find it best leaving it till next shed then just upping the humidity a bit more



once he let me go and was put back in his viv







dont you just love boas
