Hi :)
This is my new BCI ... The seller told me that the snake is a Coral Sharp Sunglow. It's right ? :hmm: :suspicious:

It looks like a sunglow, could be a coral, how old is it?.. Why do you doubt the name given by the seller?

Because the seller told me he didn't know what it is exactly, but on the papers from the Reptile Expo (fair) was written Coral Sharp Sunglow and i know for a fact that Coral is from the Khal line, so it can't be what the seller told me.

I didn't even notice that you said sharp sorry, yea that is a bit odd. Isn't there a breeder listed on those papers? I have actually heard about Sharp corals being bred back in 2007, in Germany. Haven't done too much research about it though, with a bit of searching on google i was able to find the topic i read it in, someone saying they bought a pair of Sharp Corals from a breeder in München. Couldn't find any follow-up on that easily though, it was on a Dutch forum. However for some reason i doubt this would be one of those elusive Sharp corals.. So perhaps it is a Kahl after all?

I have no idea on the morph but that is one beautiful boa.

A coral is a selectively bred line of Kahl strain albino so you can't be a true coral and a sharp unless its a double homozygous for both strains of albanism.

I know... i think it's a Kahl Sunglow... maybe a Coral and/or a Jungle :)

To be honest, it does look like a sharp sunglow on this picture. It does however not look like a coral, or a jungle. Maybe the seller just stuck the name 'coral' on there to make the animal look more interesting? nice attitude :D

I think it is jungle... because the pattern of the head is broken, the saddles have irregular pattern close to the head and tail and on the lateral side has those characteristic traces and not least the cream color.
