    Need some help

    Ok so I was on CG for the past month checking out this boa and seeing if I want it or not. I want a boa for the size and personality of a boa but I just want 1 as a pet and a nice one at that. Leaning toward a Sunglow, coral albino or albino. Anyway I stumbled upon this as a "hypo boa"





    So what is it? And should i get it? She want $100

    i think u should get it, i just got 1, its a really nice pet. he's just as tame as my bp but the boa has a much better personality. $100 is not a bad price. u can probably find cheaper but its still not a bad price

    If you like it and if it has a good disposition and looks healthy, then you should buy it. Looks like it could be a hypo. It's at least a year old probably more so it's not a baby, I'd say it's a good price.

    I am going to look at it this week but I am curious at what it is to see what it will turn out b/c I know about the color changes as they grow old. But i wonder about the color changing and how legitly old the boa is

    Sounds like you are not sure if it is a hypo?

    If you wanna be sure there are tons of Hypo RTBs in kingsnake for sale. It seems to be the most common RTB morph.

    I just know they go through a color change as they grow old and have narrowed down my morph selection by looking at this. Hypos seem to have the biggest variation of color as adults and there is no real way to tell. Im going to take a look at the snake this week sometime. I am trying to talk her down to 75 though.

    Re: Need some help

    If I had to make any kind of guess based on the pics, I would say it's about 12-18 months old, depending on their feed schedule...
