Pacific Boa Constrictor Snakes (Candoia bibroni bibroni)

Fiji Boas are famous for changing colour, but it's hard to catch them at it. Today I went to clean out their tank and found Constantine under the newspaper at her palest pink, and Magenta under a piece of bamboo in his most brooding dark... and yet some days they are identical.

Here is a tangle for you! All seven of our adult Fiji boas are in the holding tub while we clean out their tank. These snakes live together in large display tank, and seem to be quite companionable (for snakes....).
