I'm about to be a foster mama!

She has to stay as she fits all the criteria for being given a permanent spot at your home.....she’s old, she was done wrong by, she has special needs and now a special person to provide them....she can’t go anywhere now!

Ooooh, she's right!

Imma just keep watching this here thread for a bit.

 

[camelotshadow]

Well of course there is always a choice but she just fits so well around your neck & she really seems to be at "home"...When is just one more too much...you have to decide but I think she loves you as much as you love her...

Make sure he does not have a change of heart & want peanut butter!

Oh, he has zero chance of getting her back. The second he abandoned her, he forfeited all rights to her and she was legally signed over to us. The only thing he gets now is fines and (hopefully) jail time. He'll also be blacklisted as a potential adopter for the rest of his life.

Hehehe, she’s going nowhere!!!

She belongs with you as you both just look so comfortable together and no one will look after her as well as you will.

Stop pretending you’ll be able to give her up, lol ....your adoption application papers will the first ones (and likely the only ones) the rescue receives for her.

She has to stay as she fits all the criteria for being given a permanent spot at your home.....she’s old, she was done wrong by, she has special needs and now a special person to provide them....she can’t go anywhere now!

Congratulations

If I ever foster again I think I better keep it a secret.

She definitely does fit right in, though. She's such a little charmer, all I ever want to do is loop her over my shoulders as I go about my day.

I've been googling around for Peanut Butter's morph, since she's clearly not a wild type and I'm not as versed in boa morphs as other species, and as it turns out, she's a hypo too! An orange-tail hypo, I thiiiink.

I've got hypo snake twins!

 

[hrafn]

You know what guys, you're right. A senior snake as refined as Peanut Butter needs an elegant name. So she is now officially...

...Lady Peanut Butter

 

[faislaq]

...Lady Peanut Butter

What could be more refined than that?

 

[camelotshadow]

Wow, I see her more like Grand Dame Peanut Butter!!! So she's a extra special roasted hypo...
She took a long time gettin to the nutty goodness///


sorry but some things are just meant to be secret or not...We're not telling you anything you don;t already know!

What color are her eyes? I can't see them unless they are very light or maybe they are closed in the photo??? I usually see dark eyes.

 

[camelotshadow]

I think i found her...Look at the markings!!!

Super hypo...looks like yours & grows only to 6 ft but Peanut looks bigger

Hows's this"
Super Chunky Peanut Butter!!!

Looks like the eyes are light too but this one moves her head so fast.

OH hypo is dominant so one gene for it will produce a visual hypo. A super hypo had nothe parents that were super hypo so they have 2 hypo genes & will produce all hypo babies when bread...So its for breeding that a super hypo is valuable..

ITs a hypo though & they have light eyes...like a cats...not black...Very Nice!!!

Beautiful! You could very well be right!
Lady Peanut Butter has light eyes with a dark stripe, so they're perfectly camouflaged with her face.

Oooo, that's crazy cool! Man, I need to brush up on my boa knowledge.
If she's smaller by nature that's a major relief. She's still skinny, but hopefully not as stunted as I feared!

 

[camelotshadow]

shes beautiful & deserved to be treasured...shes waited a long time!

Sorry but she like eve has captured me & I want her!

 

[camelotshadow]

20 years!!! She could be one of the original hypos as they came about in 1997!!!

They call the females Dame you know...She may be the Gran Dame...

Maybe they used her as a breeder to make snakettes & now they have enough so need for her?
You don;t want someone to take her just to breed...

How about Empress?

That's amazing!! I always forget how new the herp community is.

Thankfully you have to sign a contract when adopting that says you won't breed. Of course, shady people will be shady...

Lady Peanut Butter is fine...but Super Chunky PB was

Pretty girl!

She’s definitely hypo and I don’t see any Central American influence. Super Hypo isn’t uncommon and isn’t worth more than most hypos unless they have been proven through breeding and even then they have to be quality to be worth real money. Orange tail is a line of Hypo but without documentation can’t be claimed. Hypos are honestly a dime a dozen even though your new foster looks like a nice clean one with some decent coloration!

She honestly looks perfectly healthy and not skinny at all. Most people grossly overfeed boas. She looks like a loaf of bread/boxed off and muscle tone which is a sign of a healthy boa. I’d be surprised if she’s actually anywhere near 20 and is most likely way younger & a good size. 40 isn’t a common age for boas to get to even though they technically can. Mid 20s is a more common lifespan if the boa hasn’t been fed to death.

Also boas are generally smaller than people imagine them haha. You can get some real big ones but average is actually 6-8ft for them. And Boa constrictor imperator have been upgraded into their own species they are now just Boa imperator.
