hi there

.she a dwarf kahl strain from a very good breeder in the UK 3rd generation dwarf. mums around 4 ft so will stay nice and compact ,she's been feeding nicely but now she's gone into shed the last couple of days.
I've attached a few pics she's in shed at the moment so will hopefully post some decent pictures after when she's nice an bright again

Re: new dwarf Sunglow

Stunning boa mate, those colours really pop... I'm not really into morphs but always loved a Sunglow

Dunno if you've had a mixed blood "dwarf" before... If not, be careful with feeding as even though the dwarf blood is in there there's also some Colombian blood to get the kahl in there... So if he's fed on the heavier side you can overcome the dwarf blood and still get a large boa.
Sorry if you already know all that, was just mentioning it as I have a 7.5ft+ CA dwarf male! Lmao

Re: new dwarf Sunglow

The parents were a 75% c/a 100% het kahl female that was aquired from John berry, she was from pete kahls failed type 2 blizzard project.
The father is a Kahl sunglow aquired from Pete Kahl himself, this male was a part of Pete's reduced size project.the breeder has a hold back male from the same pairing back in 2002 and he is only just over 3 ft.
so i hope that with decent parentage she should stay small
