HI everybody , Yesterday I was given a nice Boa Constrictor and would like to have some help to find the morph of it. Is it a Red tail boa ? Not sure but here is a picture.

I wont handle her for a while because i tried yerterday ( Big error ) and she tried to bite me at multiple times. She also tried to bite me trough the window...
The person that game it to me had if for 2 or 3 years now and said that she usually is really tame.

Thanks for the help and any info about them would be appreciated.

I find that mine is only snappy when it is hungry. I would suggest feeding it outside of the enclosure in another container like a big rubbermaid, and use a snake hook so you can get in there to touch it without getting bit. Once you've held it in one hand and the snake hook, they aren't wanting to bite. You can then take it out, hold it etc without worry.

Thanks alot , I now know better about my new Boa. Just a little update, I managed to pick her up yesterday and she didnt even tried to attack me. The girl that gave it to me said she was extremely docile and I do believe her. The stress caused by moving her might have been the problem why she tried to attack me. Also i found out that she hates suddent movements, Specially when she seems to be sleeping.

Ill try to pick her more and more often to be used to handle a snake. Its hard to trust a reptile that is 3-4 feets long when you never handeled another big snake in your life.

I'll keep you informed and thanks for the help.
