Sunglows, Lipsticks, Albinos? Kahl vs Sharp? Q's and Pic Requests!
So I was talking to my mom, and she agreed to get me a boa for my graduation gift after I finish college! (Still gonna get a BP for myself first, though).
I was looking at some morphs, and I'm quite partial to sunglows, lipsticks, and certain albinos - particularly jungles and motleys.
Some questions....
Are lipsticks just a variation of sunglows?
Is sunglow a type of albino? I'm kind of confused about this.
From my very basic understanding, Kahl and Sharp are just the two different lines, but what separates them from one another?
My snakes will all be pets, and I want awesome looking pets. I'd want a high contrast boa with deep orange/red patterns. Which of these lines should I look at when I go to get my boa? Which of the lines tend to keep the contrast and vivid colors better?
What really separates all of these colors from one another? I've seen some regular albinos that look a lot like sunglows, but for a fraction of the price. Is it all just in the genetics? (Like I said, I'm just looking for a pet, so the genetics aren't hugely important to me, aside from wanting a healthy/temperamentally sound snake).
I've been having a tough time finding what these morphs look like as adults. Do they all tend to yellow out? The babies look awesome. Very pale color with bright, vivid patterns; then I find some as adults and it looks like the pale color yellows out and the patterns blend and pale out.
If you have any of these morphs, would you mind posting before/after pics, as babies then as adults? (Or when they're older?)
Hopefully this post makes sense! Big thank you in advance!
