Re: new argentine Boa
nice pick ups man, the pattern on the first one is unreal, just like the lack of pattern on the second one.

Mack is a bit bigger(1 yr older) but lots of similarities.

Re: new argentine Boa
Very pretty. I saw some Argentines at an expo I was at last month & fell in love. And it looks like yours has the best of both Colombian and Argentine. Congrats!

So long as nobody misrepresents what it is, where's the harm?

B. constrictor occidentalis x B. constrictor Imperator.
No phisical harm, just destroying pure blood lines.

Sorry, I disagree. It's not like the parents were destroyed after the babies were born. Nothing was destroyed here. Unless this boa is later sold as pure-blood one or the other, that I would definitely have a problem with.

Re: new argentine Boa
I agree, it makes the animal unique in its own way. Just as long as it wasn't bred and misrepresented as a pure bred then there isn't really any harm. But those are some beautiful snakes aj099

Well it's a shame to say that this snake probably has 20+ siblings. Now who's to say out of those 20+ one wont be bred with another boa to produce another 20+ un pure bloodlines. Now there is alot of un pure bloodlines introduced into the trade. Now times the numbers by 10
