    Not so dull!

    So I took pics of my BCI and albino yesterday and the BCI didn't look his best. Well he shed out this morning and looks darn good if you ask me, so I had to show him some love!

    He is very nice, love his tail! My little booger hasn't shed with us yet. Are they as noticeable as the balls when going into shed?

    Wow that's a while with out a shed right? How long have you had it now? And so far no it's not as noticeable, I'll notice he will dull out but that could also be mistaken as dark phase. Also the eyes gloss over, not as noticeable as my bps but they still do.

    Maybe maybe not. They are a long ways from breeding size! Could be fun tho, especially not having to deal with eggs.

    Re: Not so dull!

    not sure if its the same but my hog island boa gets very dark before he goes into shed its almost a reddish haze he has so I call it his red phase its crazy he looks so cool during shed and he looks awesome after shed when he gets super light! I think I have one of the cleanest Hogs around so I am very proud of him. But I think its a bit different from when my balls go into shed because they get like a ghostly look and they get really dark. My biggest girl almost looks like black axanthic when shes in shed! Im not sure how it is for the big mainland BCIs though...

    I have to check my book, but getting close to two months, or right at two months. I thought he looked kinda faded one day, but eyes never clouded so maybe just color fluctuations? These guys do that don't they?

    Yup they go go to the cool side and get all dark then when on the warm side they are nice and light. My guy has shed three times already and I think we got them around the same time. How's his growth?
