Update on growing Boa projects

Isaac's Ark · 05-31-11, 09:05 PM

These are animals that were previously posted but have matured over the winter months so I figured I would show some up dated photos.

Male Sunglow is coming along nicely. He may very well breed this upcoming season.

This is our Motley Poss. TH Snow Motley

This is our female.

Fantastic pics as always

we were also lucky enough to come across this nice little pair. This is a male hypo rail-back boa aka hypo reduced pattern we are going to breed him with one of our nice female salmons.

This female is one of our options

I also found a picture of the motley after she sheds

Whats the object on the last snake?

We use a 5 cent coin with a red sticker on one side and a blue sticker on the other to have a visual marker for what sex the animal is, all the photographer does is make sure the proper side of the coin is up and corresponds with the sticker on the animals record card

I really like your idea...it also acts as a scale, which is very nice!

Thank you we are really happy with the way the room is turning out. There will be a lot more pictures to come. We are currently waiting patiently for the results from 4 of our breeding projects. Baby season is always the time of the year when I start to loose my mind. lol once everything is born and settled I will be up dating our website we are also on the facebook lol most photos hit there first for friends and family next is all the forums and then our website. LOL breeders job is never done.
