this is lucky. he was left kinda uncared for in a house where everyone was afraid of him except the owner who was no where to be found. i've had him for a year and a half now handling him often,and he's eating right and growing fast. he's just under 5ft long and i have no idea of his age.

This is a nice boa, but rather a Nicaraguan Boa c. imperator, not a Peruvian redtail IMO. Anyway, pretty nice!
