Meet Boo Radley Macaroni – A Survivor With a Story and a Whole Lot of Heart

Not all rescue stories begin in shelters—some begin tangled in the bushes outside an Olive Garden.

That’s where Boo Radley Macaroni’s journey started, discovered in distress and carefully freed by a kind stranger. Injured and terrified, they were brought to a local shelter where they received the emergency care they needed to survive. Their body was fragile, but their will to live never wavered.

Transferred into our care in mid-August 2023, Boo Radley Macaroni (aka BRM) has spent the months since healing, growing, and slowly learning that the world isn’t always a scary place. With consistent care, gentle handling, and the security of a loving foster home, they’ve blossomed into a curious, resilient, and engaging young snake.

Now measuring just over 3 feet long, BRM is thriving. They eat consistently, shed well, and enjoy quiet social time, especially when it involves lounging calmly around a trusted human. And while they’re classified as a “common” ball python, their striking appearance hints at something a little more special—likely part of the cinnamon or HRA (het red axanthic) complex. Their unique rosette-style patterning and rich coloration stand out, suggesting a genetic twist on the classic “alien head” ball python look.

This beautiful snake has worked hard to leave the fear and uncertainty of their past behind. What they need now is a forever home that will appreciate their gentle nature, provide continued security and proper care, and allow them to fully relax into a peaceful life.
