New Boas including Ms. 'Plus Size'

I bought a guy's snake collection and got it delivered today, it included 6 boas and 2 balls.
The 6 boas consisted of everything from a lil 2 1/2 foot dwarf boa (is there such a thing, he said although it eats good it has stayed small) to several 6 footers, one seven and a half foot, and Ms. 'Plus Size'. she is now my largest snake, measuring nine feet and 13" in girth.
I will be shopping for her and Ms. 7 1/2 a few nice plastic water bowls, she has a ceramic one but it is not big enough to soak in.
I'm excited about the new additions, and hope Ms. 'Plus Size' does not grow much more, lol......

My son will likely take pix in a few days, I fed them all tonight and will let them settle in a couple days before handling them.

Lucille,
I would be very interested in any info you may have on the small boa.
Is it a male or a female and do you know how old it is?

Mike, he says he has had it for a few years;from his description to me: "seriouse dwarf. she is about 3.5 yrs old
andhas an appetite"
I do not know the sex although he says it is female. I do not know him personally so cannot vouch for the time frame, I guess time will tell.
Am embarrassed to say that except for seeing spurs, I do not know how to sex, have never probed, I would like to be shown once before I do it myself.
I had planned to ask for a demonstration at Daytona, I have no geographicly close local reptile people to show me.

If I feed this little one and it is a girl and stays little bitty, you should probably have her so you can see if she and pip prove out to be genetically tiny boas. As I said, I have no records but will keep an eye on her.
