    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Due to my recent car accident and everything that has happened due to the wreck and my injury, I have decided to part with most of the reptiles I have right now. I have no interest in selling them for profit, I will be adopting them out to good homes only, but I do require an adoption fee.

I am first offering my adult columbian rainbow boa for adoption. He is 3.5 to 4 feet in length.

He is very healthy, currently feeding on thawed frozen small to medium sized rats, 2 a week, sometimes 3 a week.

I will have photos available of him in the next couple days, after he sheds. If you would like photos of him in shed I can send some, but please note his colors are a little dull and you can see that he is in shed.

He is a little skittish. He will strike when inside his enclosure. Will tame down great with regular handling. He is fine once he is outside of his enclosure. I am unable to handle him much right now due to a hand injury form my accident.

I only require a $50 adoption fee PLUS SHIPPING. All I ask is that he DOES go to someone who has snake experience and knows proper care, heating, handling, etc with this type of boa. Rainbow boas of any type are generally not good "beginner snakes" and I would definitely not recommend this particular snake for a beginner.

If you adopt him and need him to be shipped, he will be shipped via FedEx Priority Overnight. It will cost approximately $50 to ship him, depending on your zip code. Please note that I do guarantee live delivery, except in temps lower than 45 degrees or higher than 89 degrees. LOCAL PICKUP IS PREFERRED. I am 45 miles north of Jacksonville, FL and 35 miles South of Brunswick, GA off of I-95. I can meet for delivery, but only within 5 to 10 miles of Saint Marys, GA 31558, due to the fact I do not have a car right now and will have to borrow a car or take a taxi in order to meet someone locally.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions at: [email protected]
