Finally, my beautiful new baby boas!
Hey all,
Well, two good things came from the herp concentration camp that I used to work at. These two seemed to be immune to the crap that went on there, and I just had to bring them home, and then proceed to bathe them, and treat them for mites. 
I picked them specifically for their patterns and colors. To my knowledge, they were bred by Phillip Bergmann in Calgary.
Here's Aphrodite:
Needless to say, she was chosen for her bright tail. These pictures do her tail no justice at all; I've seen Surinames with duller tails than she has.
She also has a couple of aberrancies that I thought were really neat. If you look at the left side of the first picture, she's got two saddles connected along the back... and about 2 saddles up, 2 perfect circles. So she's not quite striped, not quite a circle back... but a little of both. 
On the opposite end, here's Zeus:
Zeus was chosen for his distinct LACK of a pattern. I loved his almost black tail, and his thin-saddled, faded pattern. He makes me think I have an Anery. Hey, it's the closest I've got right now!
Thanks for looking.

Thanks everyone. I'm very happy with these two. On top of their beauty, they have great typical boa personalities - calm, totally handleable snakes.
Trevor - I'm sure they'll be on bunnies soon enough.

LOL... 28 snakes. We were at 29, but sold two, and I just adopted another adult BCI on Sunday... pictures pending on that one too.
