The name red-tail boa refers to a lot more than just the Colombian red tail boa. Suriname red tail boas are commonly called, true red tails because they exhibit a much more intensified red color on their tails. That is why the red tails here look much more fascinating. Most likely you have a Colombian red tail, but now looks like you might have to get a Suriname red tail too

Thank you! I used to keep alot of snakes. But now I just wanted the prime examples of my all time favourites. Spend a lot of time finding what i considerd to be perfect specimens to my taste Only thing I didnt find were Argentine boas ! But I want to keep my numbers low because we're quite busy in life, and I want low numbers so I can just enjoy my hobby in peace.

Hiro is definetly a pretty boy, sad his girl passed away his offspring would've been nice to see. I'm sure your redtail is gorgeous! These are wildcaught surinamese those tend to have really red tails.

Yep, mine is a Columbian. Maybe one day I will add my own lilith, because she is stunning. But I am after a gtp as my next pickup. We added 3 snakes and a crestie at repticon last weekend and my wife is like "no more"..but still drools over the gtp. I am not stupid so I know my next add has to be one of those.

Lol, that's kind of how it goes , luckily green tree pythons are amazing snakes, so hard to find captive bred though.

Yeah, we are trying to kind of hold off and see how the hobby adapts to the species demand. Hopefully captive bred becomes more common.

It’s amazing how different the availability of certain snake species is between the US and the European market. If you take a look at "http://terraristik.com" the German (European) equivalent to fauna classifieds you can find at least ten different offers for CB green tree pythons (Morelia viridis) from January and late December alone, when I was at the Hamm expo in December I saw several private breeders offering their offspring. On the other hand there are several species available in the US you simply can’t find here…

Tsubaki, amazing snakes, even if they are definitely not MY kind of snakes…
