Baby rainbow boas morphs or not

Justinbolleurs · 12-13-15, 12:06 PM

Hi I bought 2 baby Brazilian rainbow boas a month or so but I never asked if they were any type of morphs, I have a couple of pictures of my male brb so I would love to know if they just norms or some type of morph? The top picture s how he looked after the second shed and the bottom was after the firts shed and his colour changed a lil.

There aren't very many morphs in the rainbow boa world, and the morphs that do exist are very obvious, they aren't usually confused with wild-types. Your two look like normals to me.

Oh so the morphs are a lot different in colour. The strange thing for me is why did my male change from that brighter orange to that darker almost reddish colour, it's not in shed because he shed 2-3 days ago?

Ya, the current morphs are albino, leucistic, etc, very distinctive and many times the going price for normal rainbows. Good looking babies you have there btw.

No lucies yet I believe. Albinos, yes; also hypos and aneries, plus endless pattern permutations. I would lean towards normals as well. They look to be in good shape!

I think there's some lucy Colombians (OP didn't specify subspecies, just rainbow boa).

Ah, OK, then yes. Sorry, I tend to focus on the Brazilian ssp.
