Argentine Boas

I might be getting some ocidentalis but I wanted to know about thier average adult size?

[BIG_dan]

I've been told 7-9 feet is normal. I had a male (Samson) that was an honest 9 feet and 38 pounds! Plan for it to get big! I love those snakes!!! :'(

Darryl, Occidentalis are amongst the biggest boas out there!

They, along with True Peruvian BCC, typically reach more than 10 feet long as adults, and can get quite heavy too! A 12-14 foot adult is NOT uncommon.

In one of Jeff's video's, he shows off some of his, and they are probably the biggest in his collection, again, aside from the older Peruvians..

They WILL get BIG. ::)
Plan ahead !!! 8) :'(

Hope that helped - Joe :-* :-* :-*
