Comparing Columbians
Here are two Epicrates cenchria maurus for comparison. Both are juveniles about the same age, yet they're clearly different. I expect Tagz (left) to darken into that wonderful deep Indian Red that most Columbians sport, and I expect Dusty (right) to get a little lighter, but only time will tell.

Re: Comparing Columbians

Re: Comparing Columbians
Only Tagz is permanent. Dusty was a drop-off and likely won't be staying.

Re: Comparing Columbians
Very nice snakes. Just a helpful suggestion, I opened the thread expecting BCIs. Perhaps some specification would help

This is in the Epicrates section. It's not terribly likely that you'll find a BCI here, but you just might in the Boa Constrictor section

He has a point, though. If opened from the home page, there might be some confusion. I held a Columbian rainbow boa for the first time last week. (1 adult, 2 hatchlings) They seem to be wonderful snakes in a very "convenient" size.

Re: Comparing Columbians
"comparing columbians" is catchy, and yes it is in the right section. This thread may be breaking hearts but let it roll...
Nice epicrates!

Me too, lol. I think she'll mature into exactly what I'm hoping for
There was another Rainbow boa that came at the same time as Dusty, but it's a Brazilian and as such I don't think it'd be fair to compare Colombians to it, but even if I did, they'd all be able to hold their own in a beauty contest, lol.
