Description

Brazilian Rainbow Boas

• Captive Bred Red Tail Boas (as opposed to wild caught) are usually quite tame and docile making them a popular snake.
• CAUTION: The decision to own a snake that becomes very large needs to be made carefully. Boas are NOT for children as they eventually become large snakes. Boas handle beautifully but snakes over 6 feet should NEVER be handled without another person present.
• Approximate sizes: Babies – 14 to 22 inches; first year – 4 to 5 feet; second year – 6 to 8 feet; full grown – 6 to 10 feet. Reaches full adult size in approximately 48 months.
• Sturdy and long lived – typically up to 30 years in captivity.
• Boas adapt well to handling if consistently handled.
