Alright guys, I haven't done too much posting here as of lately. Been mainly messing around over at Retic Nation as my retic projects get underway.

None the less, I have started a new boa project for the future to get some live birth experience under my belt. So without further delay, Peaches and Cream. The Fire and the Ice.

2012, Snow Female - Coral Albino Kahl Line

Going to be a lot further down the road than anything else I'm working with, but it's a fun project and will result in all visuals that are 100% het for Anery (aka Het Moonglow or Het Snow).

Long ways down, min of 2 years. Boa's have an incredibly slow metabolism in comparison to Retics, burmese, or Ball Pythons. You can easily make them sick from over feeding by offering too large of prey or feeding too often. Where my breeding stock of Ball Pythons and hognose are gearing for this season thanks to healthy apetites, I can not fathom or would want to fathom them going before 2015. They have a great start though, and are in excellect condition. So we willl see what they do!

Thanks DragonsEye, he was initially a hold back from the breeder that they decided to replace with a more gened male. Great example of Kahl Sunglow, and hopefully produces some great looking snakes with his Snow mate down the line.
