how old is the female if you plan on breeding her in possibly a year?

If this is a baby DH sunglow you're talking about, DO NOT breed it at 2 years of age! Boas are not colubrids. It takes a female boa 4 years to get to a safe breeding age/weight. (3 minimum, but even then, they have not reached full adulthood, and you can seriously screw them up).

You would CLEAN up if you bought that snake and got it to reproduce with an albino! With that clutch alone, you could fund almost ANY boa project you wanted (Motleys, Jungles, Arabesques, Ghosts, etc etc).

Go for it!

Yea, that would be a pretty profitable litter, ecpecially if you hold them all back for a year and sell them for double the price. Why can't I have an uncle with cheap boa morphs? Definately buy her, 1200 for a 2 year old female dh sunglow, can't go wrong with that. You'll only make about 30x what you paid for her in about 2 years. Thats a pretty good turn around. Take care.

Dan.
