Winny is I believe an Arabesque Boa, 4yrs old and roughly 6 foot, but its not her looks that I question its her daily behavior.
She asks out everyday, climbs the glass and really works to open the doors if she doesn't get her own way lol
She presses the side of her face and you can see how hard she pulls, as she did on Monday and as I was going to my mum for the night, so I didn't get her out.
Tuesday when I came home, I saw to my horror the door was open by a few inches and no Winny!
I couldn't believe it, and I began doubting myself..had I left it open? Had Kit not closed it properly after rubbing her that morning?
Then yesterday I found her under the cabinet, had to call my mother in law to help tip it so I could lift her out, whew back into her viv to warm up.
Then last night I realised that she had let herself out, she worked most of the night to come out. This morning she is halfway up the glass, asking out.
Not only that she follow you with her eyes, if at the back she comes to the glass upon seeing us and presses her nose to the window.
When I get her out, she goes up around the back of my neck, whispers in my ear then pushes through my hair to rest her head and neck on the top of my head! There she remains for a nap til my neck starts to ache lol
Winny is not snake like at all lol
I didn't know Boas could be so inquisitivs and demanding attention..damn I love that Boa lol |

my large girl (normal) asks to come out all the time. The rest seem contented to just give the odd "nod" to say HI, but she wants to come out, even after feeding her. Normal routine is to put her into the feeding rub, then give her her rat. Once consumed I then ease her back into the viv. Within 15mins she is back at the glass trying to get out. |

If I do as she asks and take he out for a couple of hours she is satified and curls up in her viv for the rest of the day..its when she wants out that she does it lol
High Maintainance girl hehe wants constant attention |

Keep an eye out for nose-rub if she's at the edges that much she can do some damage on her nose, obviously re-check all the conditions in the viv make sure there isn't another reason she's coming to the glass all the time.
Sounds like she's a lunatic mine never do that lol |

I was told that Boa's make for a better pet than a royal for that reason alone. They are very "aware" of what is around them. |
