This is Rose. Actually it's Rose's nose. The rest of her is under her blankie. Rose is a 2011 female Dumerils boa, about seven feet long. She's a very sweet girl.
Her enclosure is not in my "snake room" with the BCI's and ball pythons since she needs to run a little cooler than they do. She's actually in my dining room. Last winter it got cold enough that the heat pump couldn't keep up and the temperature in the house dropped into the low-mid 60's. Since Rose only has a UTH I gave her a "blankie" for cold nights, but she likes it so much I've decided to just let her have it all the time (except at meals so she doesn't accidentally eat it). Sometimes she'll go for several days where this is all that I see of her.
So, my five year old seven feet long apex predator now gets a security blanket.
