Fluffy Snake Boa Constrictor Wolcott, IN

We have a female genetic stripe red tail boa constrictor up for adoption, named Fluffy. We got her into our rescue back in June of 2018. You can read up about her when we got her in on our blog post here -- https://nightsatthechinchillarescue.blogspot.com/2018/06/red-tail-boa.html

Based off what the owner told us, we believe she was hatched about 6/2015, which would now make her about 4.5 years old. She’s not as large as you’d expect for her age (see the blog post for why this may be), but she eats well and is doing great. Still growing!

As far as eating, she is a pretty easy keeper, but she is definitely not for the beginner snake keeper. Like many red tails, she is temperamental. Temperamental snake experience is a big plus! On occasion, she will strike when you walk in front of her enclosure (we have it on the ground). She occasionally has also striked when I’ve moved her light, getting the top of the tank. She has never had a problem with being handled, or with hands actually in the enclosure, but I will admit that as she has gotten more strike-y, I have used the snake hook that the previous owner included much more. She HAS escaped a tank recently with a hinged lid, so her new home needs to be sure she is in a secure enclosure. When we found her slithering around the house, she did hiss, though did not strike or anything like that when we went to put her back. She is currently living in a 20 gallon enclosure, though likely she should move up to a larger size. She CAN come with a 20g enclosure (with locking lid and a place to additionally lock, if you so desire) and some accessories (water bowl, logs to climb on, and so on) for an additional $20.

Fluffy is up for adoption for $50, or adopt her with a 20g enclosure and accessories for $70

Fluffy is located in Hammond, Indiana (zip code 46324). Sorry, we are unable to ship her, though we can transport her to expos that we are attending, please ask if this might be of interest to you.
