I never really had an interest in sand boas, they look too much like worms to me. But while I was in petsmart, picking up some stuff to make my Dumerils more comfortable, I stopped to look at the reptiles for sale, there in the little cube with a label for a sand boa, nothing could be seen. Of course, it was in the sand. I thought "I see stores have these all the time but never actually "seen" one in person." So I asked my friend who works there to get it out and let me hold it, no intention of buying it, but I fell in love with the chubby little booger. My fiance and I argued back and forth for about an hour, when I said yes he said no and vice versa, we have so many things already, we didn't need to spend money on another snake. My friend there really wanted us to take it though because he knew with us it would have a good home. He showed us the feeding records for it and everything. We already had all we need for it as well. I'm ashamed to admit I've accumulated quite a bit of reptile stuff over the past few years. Anyway, long story short, it is now ours, it is feeding well and just such a chill little guy. Well, girl. Also, that tiny little tongue is going nonstop, so CUTE!
I think I'll call it Freckles. I've been affectionately calling it "wormy"
