Comments: OK here's the back story. When I started in to Boas I had bought two normal boas off a guy named Harold over on gettoherpers.com. He told me they was a male and female pair turns out they was two female. That didn't matter I was happy to have boas. Any who fast forward 2 years we came in to money problems and had to sell my boas. Sabrina when to one guy while Seth (never did change the name lol) went to another guy. I have been searching every since for my first babies back.

Fast forward yesterday. I just happened to hop of craigslist to see whats on there. I see an ad for a female boa nice temp 4 ft need to get rid of fast you know how it is. So I email the guy ask for pics. low and behold he sends me pics back of my Sabrina! We talk back and forth I end up trading him a 70g tank with lid for her to be back. Ok in the 3 1/2 years she has now been alive she has went to 6 (with two homes now being me) different owners.

Harold produced her
then I got her
then the guy I sold her to Shawn
then he sold her to Chris
who gave her to a guy named Matt
who then gave her to this guy
who traded her to me.
That's like 2 owners a year roughly.

Ok so when the guy got here he was keeping her in a (ad said 20-30g tank) he shows up with a 10g (mind you she a 4 ft 2 inch boa. Smelling like poo, pee and cig smoke, tiny water bowl and she's has the worse nose rub and shed I've seen in a long time! He had no heat for her, maybe fed her like every other month (if that). She was dehydrated, skinny for her size, was terrified and mouth breathing to boot. I got her as fast as I could to warm water and helped her shed. I don't have pics of her before because I felt sooo sorry for her I didn't bother with pics. But beleave me her skin was so bad it made her look wrinkly. After her warm bath and shed I put her in her QT cage and she found the water bowl and drank for an hour on and off. Poor girl. I put triple antibacterial ointment on her nose rub so it should start to heal really good.

I walk in this morning Sabrina has calmed down A LOT and she stopped her mouth breathing! But a trip to the vet is still in order to make sure she ok. Man I'm glad I got on craigslist! She is back with me and not going anywhere. I'm not going to breed her either. Reason is I have no clue what she's been through and I don't want to add the stress of having babies on top of that too. So she just going to be fat lazy and happy for the rest of her life here.

8/6/2012 Update:
Sabrina has blossomed in my care! The nose rub is nearly inadvisable! She is now around 5 ft give or take and eating jumbo rats to boot every 2 weeks! You wouldn't have thought she was the same boa other then the marking says she is lol.. She has gotten back her rainbow shimmer that she once had! She's a BEAUTIFUL gray color now and just the sweetest boa ever! Updated her picture to!
