    Epicrates sp

    Cleaning day, so I took some quick photos. Hope you enjoy!

    Epicrates striatus fosteri - Jill; almost a two year old female Bimini Island Boa




    Epicrates striatus fosteri - Jack; almost a two year old male Bimini Island Boa. He is growing quicker than Jill and turning black sooner.


    Epicrates cenchria cenchria - Sunspot; a yearling male Brazilian Rainboa Boa. He has some aberrant dorsal patterning similar to Dave Colling's candy stripes. I'm also adding two more aberrant BRBs to the breeding project very soon from a breeder in NJ - they both have neck striping and aberrant side patterning - a new genetic morph maybe (about a third of the litter had the trait)?








    Epicrates striatus striatus - Gretel; a yearling Haitian boa in deep shed unfortunately

    Those Bimini Island boas are gorgeous! Do they keep that pattern as they get older?

    Thanks everyone!

    Anna - they'll keep the patterning, but should continue to get darker. The nicest Biminis are more black.

    Thanks Rebecca and CLE!

    The Biminis are some of my favorites also. They're pretty rare and very iridescent like their cousins. Plus, they have to be the most mellow, friendly snakes I own.
