ditto what Nicole said. That is one lucky snake! And oh -- wow-- you're lucky too!
A perfect match, I'd say.

She really was fortunate that you won her and not someone else. I hate it when petstores raffle off animals. I'd much rather see them raffle off a $20 gift certificate - or a tank or something.

But, what can you really do about it?

Congratulations, though. I can't wait to see the pics.

Indeed!
Particularly when its something that is going to be the size of a boa constrictor!

That was my concern also. Alot of the people that entered I could tell were clueless as to what a boa involves (you had to be present to win). After I won it a girl that might have been 15 offered me 200 bucks for it. I just laughed. Alot of people seemd unhappy (I also won a consolation prize, a zoo-med lighting system) they were not happy that I won 2 of the 5 prizes. The funniest thing was prior to the drawing I purchased a new 30 gallon critter tank for my Leopard Geckos, when I was leaving with the snake, tank, crickets an the lighting system some moron said "what an idiot,,,,,keeping a boa in a small tank like that
" the owner just looked at him and said "that guy has 5 boas already and has been raising reptiles when your mom was still in diapers".

That's great. Makes you sound positively ancient , but definitely a cool thing to hear. How long have you known the owner?

I've known the owner for about 14 years now, they take good care of me and usually give me double of what I pay for when I buy feeders for the lizards, turtles and snakes. I actually purchase everything I need from them except the animals themselves. It is also one of the largest petstores I've ever seen.

Very lucky! Can't wait to see some pics. Glad you are the "new" snake owner.
