Was taking some cell phone pics, of this gal, and decided I would share some here.

Alita is a Normal het Anery type 2.
May not be a morph but I find her beautiful.
Love Alita's darkness, pattern, and pink belly.
In person, her browns (mixed within the black, grey, etc.) are not as noticeable as they are in pics.
She is also a sweetheart.

One unique thing, about Alita, is that she is rather small.
At 7 yrs. old, she is only approx. 3 1/2 ft. long (more or less) and a bit more slender than my others.
My other Nics, though a smaller boa species, make her look like a dwarf (especially the T+ female from Kahl stock).
Have had her, since she was a hatchling, and never has she gone without food. Though she did go on a self imposed, 2 month, fasting period once in her lifetime (yrs. ago).
She is quite the "enthusiastic" feeder too.
Alita has simply remained a small package of a great snake.

What a beauty! Nice and dark.
Both my hog isles are adults and under 4'. Gotta love the small boas :)

Mostly breed other species but have been thinking about breeding her (& my others) and really may do so.
Although, don't know if I want to use a male, that I have, or look to purchase just the right Anery type 2 (or het) male for her... if I find one. LoL

....

Thanks!
Yes, gotta love the small boas. :)

....

I love the darker colours - I think she's a stunner.

Gorgeous, what feeding regiment do you have her on ?

Thanks. :)
She is fed one small rat every 7 days.

....

Awesome that she still maintains that size, amazing healthy girl.
Is she a "musker" lol looking at the gloves lol.

No, Alita is a real sweetheart. No musking, no biting, etc.
I do love that she maintains her smaller size.:)

I often wear gloves during cleaning (changing gloves between snakes, etc.) with periodic hand washing, as well, between glove changes (despite the wearing of gloves).

If I don't happen to wear gloves, I wash my hands, very well, between handling of each/every different snake (actually, after handling any reptile ... even if the only one for the day).
If simply handling (no cleaning), I do have a preference for no gloves.

It is for sanitation reasons as well as limiting the chance of cross contamination (even if/when critters are apparently healthy).

I have over 100 snakes, over 20 geckos, etc.... and am an unwitting supporter of paper towel, glove, soap, & hand lotion companies. LoL

Oh, almost forgot, I also wear gloves when cleaning rodent enclosures.;)
