[ThirteenRavens]

I can't get over how stunning he is out of the box! He is gorgeous and will only get better :) He is incredibly sweet already and I can't wait to handle him more! He is currently settling in to his new home...going to be so hard to be hands off for a week lol...hard to capture his belly, it's a pinkish/reddish/orangish color...

Here are the photos and the unboxing vid I took :)

[ThirteenRavens]

Welcome to the BOC

Dare I ask what the BOC is? Lol...thanks! I already know more boas are definitely in my future!

[dannybgoode]

Boa owners club :). Regarding him colouring up one of the fascinating this about boas is how they change colour even hour to hour, day to day.

Auntie Rachel can be very dark with lots of orange coming through and very contrasting markings. Other things she's almost battleship grey with more subtly to her darker markings.

Everyone needs at least one boa (or in minks case 7 or 8 ;) ).

[richardhind]

[EL Ziggy]

Thank you :)

[Snakesitter]

Woot 'grats!

[PatrickV]

beautiful colors on him! what kind is he though?

[Andy_G]

beautiful colors on him! what kind is he though?

I believe he is a super hypo hog island cross (sunset). Achieved by breeding hog island x hypo, and then breeding two of those hypo offspring (deemed hypo hogs or het sunsets) together to create supers/sunsets.

[PatrickV]

good to know! i just picked up two baby hypo hogs because i plan on making sunsets in the future myself. i love the pinks and oranges they have. can i ask about how much he cost you, if u dont mind?

[ThirteenRavens]

He is indeed a sunset!...thanks for answering this for me Andy, I completely spaced to get on here yesterday lol!

[JellyBean]

Simply beautiful. And I love how excited you are :)

[david26]
