    Opinions

    So, the guy that I bought my last two boas from recently had a female drop a litter and called me up to see if I was interested in anything. It was a DH coral sunglow x DH coral sunglow litter, with the male I purchased a few weeks back being the father. He knew I was looking at working with sunglows eventually so he offered me his pick of the litter female sunglow for $800, so I had planned on going to take a look this weekend. Now he just called me a little while ago to see if I was interested in his yearling coral albino female instead of the baby sunglow, I've seen the albino in person before and she's a gorgeous girl with awesome colors, and he's offering me her for $500, which is what he's selling his '08 babies for.
    What would you do? Get the sunglow who's only about a month old and wait three years to breed her to her father, or get the '07 coral albino who's about 3 feet and wait two years to breed her to my male? I'm leaning towards the albino, but am looking for some more experienced opinions as I'm just starting to pick my future breeders.

    The 07 albino female would be a much better buy and investment for future breeding plans.

    Personally, I like albinos better.
    I would get an older animal if she was in my breeding plan.

    Alright, it looks like the albino it is! I'll be picking her up Saturday so I'll get some pictures of her before I let her settle into her tub.
