Re: New Sunglow poss het anery girl
lol I think people who say "I only love wild types, I'll never own a morph!" Are all stubborn, there's nothing inherently wrong with morphs. Invariably, they all find a morph they say "WOW" to, but then in the same breath are like "too bad I'll never own one since it's a morph." A nice-looking snake is a nice looking snake. lol I like wild types, too, but if I like a snake I'm not gonna pull the "but..." card.
So, give in danny, get you a morph you like. :P
Even if Nymeria doesn't get any crazy colors, she's keeping her colors nicely thus far, so hopefully she won't be a faded adult, and hopefully she'll make some nice holdbacks.

Re: New Sunglow poss het anery girl
Oh I do like the odd morph. A lot of them really don't do it for me but the odd one I find really pretty.
I guess though as my collection will be modest I have to set parameters somehow so on that basis I am sticking to my guns as there are plenty of wild types I want before I even think about a morph or two.
My other fear (perhaps unfounded) is that wild types will disappear from the pet trade altogether as more and more people chase evermore obscure morphs and that would be a real shame.

Re: New Sunglow poss het anery girl
The one benefit of wild types becoming less popular for the pet trade, is that wild caught animals will also be a lot less interesting. But i agree mostly, that is why i bred locality retics and boas before.

Re: New Sunglow poss het anery girl
And of course at the moment CB wild types are so cheap! Ok there is the downside that people see them as a disposable pet but for the serious collector it's a massive plus

Most morph pairings will produce normals. With boas, a lot of the super forms have had questionable reproductive rates, so I don't think there's a danger of breeding many supers in boas at least. Super hypos are fine afaik, but super jungles don't seem very reliable, and super motleys don't live long enough to breed. Not too sure on the other supers (keltics, RLTs, etc. as I believe the supers are just now being produced and attempted to be bred).
Boas also have a wider variety of things you can do with wild types than a lot of other species. I have seen some linebred normal boas that you would swear up and down were morphs, but they aren't even hets for anything. Mostly in the various pastel lines, which can affect both pattern and color.

Re: New Sunglow poss het anery girl
She's definitely progressing nicely. Colors are bright and crisp.

Thanks! I'm kinda sad her coralling didn't get better, though. It's barely noticeable anymore. Looks more like a solid reddish blushing now except on her neck. At 16 months old I'm hoping she'll stay nice and contrasted! I'm sure she'll continue to lose some of it, but it would be nice if her saddles and tail didn't fade out.

Re: New Sunglow poss het anery girl
Very pretty. Funny how they suddenly grow and then do nothing for 6 months and grow again (or at least appear to). Auntie Rachel is suddenly looking like a proper boa having suddenly got some girth to her (don't worry-still nice and square! In fact I've took her out to 3 week feedings and that seems to be a catalyst!).

Re: New Sunglow poss het anery girl
She pooped and came in at 398 grams.
She balled up all nice for me. :P This is the first time I've ever seen a boa constrictor ball up like that, I think living next to Sanji she's picked up some of his habits...
