Resident Boa Fanatic
No pics :/ my USB is faulty and I can't upload anything from the cam right now sadly...
But I went out and bought a super salmon BCI, this little fella is poss hypo blonde(might be overidden by the salmon genes) and 25%(which isn't much admittedly) for Albino.

The father and mother have a lot of Hog isle in'em so they are quite small compared to BCI's. The full grown male is around 4.5 feet in total. The female is around 6.5
The little guy I picked is a beautiful clean little thing, 20 days old... and his name is Spiritus.

I really am happy to finally have a boa in my collection. I can't wait to see him develop! :cool:
 
I managed to transfer some pictures of the little guy(and I do mean little!)

Thanks for looking :p
 
Thank you!
Actually albinos are a rarity here... but they have a down side I feel. They look amazing when they are young but as the Albino mature they lose more and more of the red-orange pigmentation... leaving a large yellowish snake.
Unless it's a T+ but those cost... yish.

I imagine that Super Salmons here cost as much as Sunglows and Moonglows over at the USA...

Anyways, as I saw the parents, I could not resist not taking this fella home with me
 
Beautiful! If the parents are Hogg Isle/BCI mutts then you could call that wee one a sunset hypo (ish)... They are my favorite hypos :)
 
I wasn't aware that the term sunset reffered to Super salmons that have Hog isle blood in'em.
Can you refer me to a page with morph definitions by any chance?

After putting in some research... my BCI is considered a Sunset cross. True sunsets are super Salmon -and- super Hypo blond.
He -might- be a sunset, but it's not certain.
Same for the Super Salmon... He is a deal prettier than his simpler looking siblings. A deal more "pink", no black markings on the tail et cetera...
But we'll know only when he breeds.
