PENDING ADOPTION!! Hi! My name is River! I am a young Hybrid Dwarf Boa, and we think I'm a male! River's Foster mom says: 'River is approximately 2.5 ft long and a few inches around. He can be a little shy/fearful, but once comfortable, likes to be very active and is never aggressive. I would recommend a house with either older or no children, as River needs a confident, experienced handler. ' Fun fact about me: I got my name because I came from Riverside and I will grow to be just like a long flowing river! I'm a young snake and I love being held and checking out new things! I do like to come out to socialize and I need to be socialized so that I can continue to be handled when I am fully grown. I can be a little shy at first but if you go slow I am happy to come out and play! My favorite things to do are take a nice warm bath or curl up in my hide. As a young and active boa, I require my own habitat that is secure. I have managed to get out on a few occasions so my habitat will require a lock. It will also need to be large enough to accommodate what I will be as an adult. With the right diet, habitat, substrate, temperature, and humidity I can live a long and healthy life of up to 30 years! My new family must have reptile experience and preferably large snake experience. Believe it or not, I was brought into the shelter as a stray and then transferred to rescue to help me find my new home!
