How would you like a FREE Boa!?!?

[The_Boaphile]

That's right. A little promotion! We here at "The Boa ThinkTank" are giving away a free Boa Constrictor! This Boa is part Surinam and mostly Colombian. I was sent this Boa on a trade and since I am not interested in producing animals that could not possibly interbreed in the wild I will not breed this Boa either. I do have several requirements for anyone wishing to apply for this free Boa.

http://www.theboaforum.com/freeboa.JPG

1. You must give me your word that you will never breed this Boa.

2. You must also give me your word that if you ever decide to get rid of this Boa you must ship her back to me. You also agree to pay the shipping for the return trip.

3. You must have adequate housing for this Boa and the wherewithal to care, clean and feed this animal.


Application for this animal can only be made at "The Boa ThinkTank". Do not email me your application. http://www.theboaforum.com You will need to register with a legitimate email address to make application for this PET Boa Constrictor. Registration is easy and it's free. Detail in your application why you should be the one to get this free Boa Constrictor. Please don't grovel and beg unendingly as I don't think this is the way to win the votes of other "Boa ThinkTank" members. That's right. After about two weeks of posts from people making application for this free Boa, the members of the "Tank" will vote on which applicant makes the best case for why they should receive this Boa. Cool huh!!? I will set up an additional post just for the voting of who gets this Boa. I will set this up after about two weeks of applications, pleads and requests for this Boa. Applications for the Boa should include info regarding the housing you intend to keep the animal in. Your age should also be included. Be aware, if you are a minor I will call to get the permission of a parent before I will ship you this animal so please do not apply without first having a parents permission if you are a minor.

Apply right here by clicking the "Reply" button on this post OK?

I will pay the shipping for this animal to your door.

She is opaque in this picture. She is actually much lighter than this pic reveals too. She is about 4 feet long and a very pretty Boa. She is about two years old. I was unable to get much info on her but I have had her here for about 10 months. She is doing very well.

Thank you!

Hello,
I love snakes, but mainly boas. I have quite a collection of boas, which include 3 red tails, 1 dumeril's, and a rainbow boa. I have more than enough vivariums and tanks in the "snake room" and am prepared to own another snake. A four-foot snake, or any size, would be a great snake for me to have. If I were givin the snake I would place him in a large vivarium that could make a great home for even a 10 foot snake. It has every thing a snake would want including a large heating pad, a nice basking spot, and access to a cool area. He would be fed very often and almost more than enough. I would hold him several days a week and pay much attention to him. If he happens to get sick, he would be rushed to a vet. I am 28 years old and majored in zoology and minored in herpetology. It would be a privilege to own a part Surinam and part colombian red tailed boa constrictor.

Thank you very much for your time,
Brennan Lane

Sign me up Jeff.

I'll give her a sweet, loving home and lots of rats to munch on. She will remain a virgin for the rest of her life.

I think she will like the weather here in Georgetown, Tx.

[morti]

I feel that this snake needs to live here with me in Louisville for the following reasons:

She will love her new home: a 4X2X18" Melamine enclosure with a shelf and all the works.

She will be well loved and handled often.

As a break from my Shakesperian naming trend in my house, I think I shall name her Sarah since she wont be having any kids... Or maybe Mary since any children she does have will have to involve devine intervention.

She will be used as an outreach pet to take to the occasional classroom to teach kids the joys of reptiles.

Because Morticia will love her nearly as much as I will.

Because I am perfectly capable of taking care of boas. :-)

Because I asked nicely.

-Morti.

[Edited to say] PS.  I am 24 and therefore not a minor.

Hey there Jeff.

i think that South Africa deserves to have a Boa from Jeff Ronne here.

She will be looked after by Me personally ,
and i already have a very fast growing reputation for having the cleanest snakes here.....and we r still in the beginning stages of a reptile market here in SA.

People say that i treat my snakes like babies.....and thats what they r to me....MY BABIES.

i promise that she will never be bred.
As a Good and Faithful Catholic boy, i will even name it Teresa....afetr Mother Teresa...cause she'll be a virgin FOREVER. (hows that staement for a little boa thinktank humour).

SO this is my application to be the Proud owner of a GORGEOUS BOA from JEFF RONNE.

i hope that it is enough to win her, so that this new 6Ft X 2Ft X 3Ft (2mX800X1m) tank that i have just bought, can be put to great use.

thank u for ur time.
Regards.
All the way from South Africa.

hey jeff!
will here, aka cb76.
i would love to take in your female boa and add her to my collection. she will be cared for very well here with me and my family. she will be housed in enclosures equivalent to 75 gallon aquarium on a red cyprus/ aspen substrate- plenty of room for her to move around in and burrow. her enclosure will have a basking shelf and a branch for her to "chill"!

she will be handled with care. she will also enjoy beautiful days out side getting plenty of sun and fresh air- when its the appropriate weather.

i will not power feed her, but she will be fed a generous diet of rat, and maybe in the future, some rabbit!

you can be rest assured that
(from my posts on YOUR forum) i will not breed her, i dont believe in crossing any locale.

but that doesnt mean that this lil' gal doesnt deserve to be loved and cared for properly!
i will do every thing and all in my power to do that.

i also promise, if in the unlikely chance i have to get rid of my collection- she will be sent directly to you, postage paid  by me!

please keep me in mind- i have the experience, knowlege, time, effort, money, and love to work with these and many more animals  cwm4.gif

later!

will

Thanks Darryl

8) lol... can't put his phone number up on the forum cuz God forbid someone might prank him...   but is more than willing to throw his address up on the screen so they can show up on his front porch....heh.. just kinda made me chuckle..  

Good luck jeff, I hope you find a nice "resort" for that boa to spend his days in...  Unfortunatly I cant take him otherwise I'd be throwin my application up on the screen in a heartbeat....  I don't know who to vote for either, they all sound like the krem day la krem (NO thats not mispelled)...  Good luck everyone...

Hey Jeff,

I'd love to get this boa because all my boas are breeders, or future breeders, and I don't handle them much. I'd love a boa that I can get out and 'play' with and enjoy. I've built a cabinet of 3 4'x2'x1' enclosures, and she will call one of the enclosures home.

As I stated above, I will never breed this boa. Between breeding, feeding, and cycling, I don't get to handle my boas near as much as I would like. I will post pictures of her to the boa forum periodically so everyone can monitor her progress as she grows into a beautiful girl.



Thanks for your consideration,

Dustin
