This snake is for the keeper who values a reliable, hardy specimen that serves as both a stunning display animal and a key building block for future projects.
Stand-Out Features

- Robust Health: Colombian Boas are famously hardy, and this line exemplifies that with strong feeders and resilient constitutions.

Your Questions Answered
What does “Het Anery” mean for breeding?
This animal carries one copy of the Anerythristic gene. When bred to another Het Anery or visual Anery boa, statistically 25% or 50% of the offspring, respectively, will be visual Anery—lacking red and yellow pigments for a black, white, and gray appearance.
How large will this boa get?
As a Colombian locality, this boa will typically reach a manageable adult size of 6 to 8 feet, with females generally being larger. They are a substantial but manageable snake with a slow growth rate over many years.
Is this a good snake for a beginner?
While Colombian Boas are hardy, their potential adult size and lifelong commitment make them best suited for intermediate keepers or dedicated beginners who have researched their long-term care requirements for enclosure size, humidity, and feeding.
